$115 million is pocket change for Apple.

Seems like they would have to pay out iphone users for "apparently free apps" that ended up costing people a fortune. And the price? $115 million - small change apparently. Each user will more than likely be offered $5. Seems rather unfair to those that have lost hundreds.

Apple might be about to accept a legal settlement that would see it pay off a lot of apps users that have been bitten by in-app purchases. The issue here is that apps, often apps that are initially free, essentially have been serving as gateways to a mall of virtual frippery and gewgaws.


If it does Apple will have to reach out to 23 million iTunes account holders and offer them $5.

The rest of the post is here (from the inquirer), give it a read through and let me know what you think?

Thanks,
