Apple Recommends Amazon Mobile
Drumroll please. Apple App Store Pick of the Week is: Amazon Mobile.
This is something refreshing since Amazon MP3 Store is the closest and best competition to iTunes Store. At this point, Amazon Mobile does not allow direct MP3 download on the iPhone and iPod touch yet.
Let’s see if Apple will let Amazon sells MP3 direct to iPhone and iPod touch.
iPhone Applications: Amazon Mobile
“Good news, everyone. Now you can spend your money on Amazon even faster with the new Amazon Mobile app on the iPhone.”
This 1.0 release is still missing tons of Amazon.com feature, notably the MP3 download.
“This mobile application does not currently support digital downloads. Add this item to your Wish List and you can view and purchase it from your computer.”
Now, if only Apple would PLAY FAIR, then they should let Amazon Mobile download MP3 straight to the iPhone.
