This shouldn't have come as that much of a surprise, given that AppShopper was pulled last December. http://thenextweb.com/apple/2012/12/18/apple-removes-popular-appshopper-app-from-sale-as-it-falls-afoul-of-app-stores-new-app-promotion-clause/ http://thenextweb.com/apple/2012/12/18/apple-removes-popular...
