Disclaimer: VLC dev and VideoLAN Chairman Truth be told, it is a grey area. The AppStore is clearly not compatible with the GPLv3. About the GPLv2 it is more complex, because what matters is if the AppStore terms are stronger than the Application License. And noone except a judge can tell... Therefore, we release on our website, videolan.org, both the source and the binary so that the GPL spirit is kept intact. People can modify their VLC, patch it, modify it and put on their iOS devices as they wish.
