To Derek:

The new ipod touches with the software update are $20 more. So if you had bought the one with the updates it would have been like you paid for the actual software itself, it’s not like you’re getting “ripped off” in that sense.

When I went to get my ipod touch recently I noticed two different boxes, one was $20 more so I of course decided to buy the cheaper one. I realized later it was because of the software update.

Hey idiots complaining about the price, here’s a quick solution: Jailbreak!!!!! You can get the apps for free along with a to of other things(games,lyrics finders, you can even use a Voip-Ip thing to use u=your touch as a phone using Wi-Fi and a $15 mic.)

I’m a little annoyed, I was informed that this update is on all new iPod Touch’s, which when I bought the iPod Touch three days ago turned out to be a falsehood. I’m not paying for these apps if this turns out to be true, they should already be preinstalled. If the rumour is false, fair enough, but I won’t pay for it, when I only JUST bought the darned thing..

I honestly cant believe Apple would go and charge 20$ for a few apps. You go and pay 3-400$ for a pretty machine that is only 8-16gigs. Apple should think of all of the loyal users that bought it instead of something else I am glad I don’t have an iPod Touch. I also agree if you don’t like it you should not get it. (Sorry Chris for the disagreement but that is how I feel).

would you be willing to pay firmware updates for your iphone as well?

Not only do I think that the apps are well worth the $20, but they added enough functionality to the IPod Touch to make me buy one. I bought an older model at a discount and gladly paid the $20 to turn a media player into a pretty full-featured PDA.

Under Sarbanes-Oxley, Apple had to charge something. It didn’t have to be $20, but it couldn’t have been free.

I realize that you come from the world of PC gamers who would rather lose a testicle than pay for software, but the Touch update is only $20.00! Does it really hurt a gamers cred that much to pay 20 bucks for 5 apps. And keep in mind that Apple has to pay licensing fees for each copy of some of the apps (the “GPS” app for examle). iPhone owners don’t pay because Apple gets a cut of the monthly bill. The Touch is a small computer-with CPU, memory, display, and OS. The OS will continuously be improved, and that costs money.
