Not exactly a great move on apple's part but I can understand why. I'd imagine quite a few parents would be upset to see adult content in the app store.

- ugh 17y agoThat’s what parental controls are for. Also: did you read the article?

Look at the numbers for the iPod Touch, almost two thirds of all iPod Touch owners are below 17. Given how many iPod Touches are out there, how many parents know about Parental Controls and how parents give little Johnny an iPod and never touch it after that and call Fox News when they find out about these "sexy apps"? At least in with this branding idea, the parents might blame the app maker (SI, Playboy) instead of Apple because of the name recognition. (That said, I'm all for removing this crap off the Top 25 lists.)
- pyre 17y agoThere are quite a few parents that are upset that 'adult content' exists at all, but I wouldn't say that they have a right to try and impose those views on everyone else.
