that's so cool I can't wait!

Of corse. as mentioned, it'll become available in the international stores, and international means actually in all stores, so you'll be able to get it.

It is my (personal) oppinion that apple should just say "all apps in all stores". App devs should not have a choice as to what stores they should put it in; after all, the more stores the more markets.  I mean, does the $.99 from someone in the U.S. any different from the $.99 (or equivalent) spent by someone in, say, for example, South Africa? Not really; money is money after all.  Apple could make their system so much easier to use if they permitted apps (and iTunes content and iBooks) to be available, regardless from what store.  Make it all one store, just with varying currencies depending on country, but have the same content... Anyway, just my little rant on the subject while we are talking about it.

Unfortunately grryf is right, it's the blasted copywrite monster again, aka, big fat publishers wanting to sucker in all the cash they can even if this means people in one country don't get something or have to pay more (as is the case with Uk book publications, especially audio books).

It's scummy and wrong, but unfortunately since apple have a very closed in system they allow this exploitation by the big businesses of everybody's interest,since after all who's getting the richest from all these publishers paying apple to publish on their platform?

this is why I am very unlikely to buy any books or music from itunes, since I don't want what I get or what I do controlled by apple. it's a shame really since in so many other respects the ios is a great system.

Okay, I'll put my marxism away now .

I am actually looking forward to the new release myself, since even though I have the game, comparing the sound quality it has to the newly improved quality in papasangre there is a massive difference. It's much harder in the nightjar for example I found to hear the difference betwene something behind you and something in front, and the audio positioning can be a trifle chopy.

Not a bad thing, especially for a free game, but still I'll look forward to experiencing the full thing when it gets updated.

@Harylst: Another problem is that some apps can only be used in a particular country.
Let's consider the IP address apps. Say all the App Stores combined into Grand Store. You have an Indonesian app that looks interesting, but what? The app requires an Indonesian IP. Whatever shall we do? Well, we could cheat the system: get an Indodesian IP and learn Indonesian to use the app.
Just an example.

Well Harielst, what can we do if we want something from another country? ---- mmmm, maybe just buy it directly from the developer as we have done across the internet for years. Accept that woops, apple doesn't get it's commition if we do that.

As regards itunes, it is more that I might well, mmm, maybe want to use a device that is not! my iphone to listen to music or audio books, or maybe put them on a memory stick and share them with friends, or perhaps might want to copy them to cd and play on my sterrio. This is why i'm not

The same goes for computer programs. i like winamp because I have sat down and worked out an equalizer settings profile that best sutes my logitech speakers, not to mention use plugins for other fun stuff. i don't particularly want! something that is only playable in itunes, indeed I will try itunes out for sincing some of my existing stuff to put on my iphone, but if it proves too much of a pain in the rear then I'll probably just buy myself an mp3 player instead.

As regards the nightjar though, I'm really glad somethinelse are! doing an international release precisely for the reasons of freedom i mention since it's only fair that everyone gets to try the game, as a really good game it is, it rather reminded me of event horizon in it's plot and setting, and I loved the aliens! .

Hi,
I typed in the nightjar Into the iTunes App Store and got nothing. I then went to the something else developer page, and didn't see it. Does that mean that it's not coming out after all? As I write it, it is officially 23 April. Thank you very much.

Cool. I'll be downloading it in two days then. thanks

Dark, the part you're missing is that the funds given to somethin else were given under the condition that the app would be free, and only sold in the U.K. app store. There are several good legal reasons why the app wasn't available, and it still costs $5 in the other app stores. This is totally reasonable to me; the company had the choice to make the app only available in the U.K. store for a while or to not write it at all. Why not accept the funding?
I do agree with you about music; I don't buy my music from iTunes to make sure that I will always have it with me. Usually, I just don't get any music, but I do buy and scan CDS for my music.
