Megatsk@apple

So I decided to take the plunge on ebay and get an iPod touch, complete with the new applications. Bargain! I thought.

Wrong.

Naturally, it was second hand so I performed a restore and *poof*, all the new applications were removed, and I'm required to spend £12.99 if I ever want to see them again. It turns out that the file that unlocks the applications is locked to an ITUNES ACCOUNT instead of an iPod, which makes absolutely NO sense when you consider it's far better business to make an account holder pay twice if they have two Touches.

What makes it even more ludicrous is that all new Touches come with the applications enabled no matter how many accounts you use them with, so basically we've got sincere, nonsensical greed.
