Snowtape 1.2, SnowRemote
Vemedio has launched an update to its Snowtape radio software, along with a new SnowRemote app for the iPhone and iPod touch. Snowtape finds and records music from streaming Internet stations. The v1.2 release delivers over 1,000 stations to choose from, and includes an enhanced algorithm for album artwork, the ability to search for stations by country, and an improved way of working with deleted items.
SnowRemote is designed to work with Snowtape and provides a playback controller, for starting and stopping music, changing volume, or toggling recording. It syncs with Snowtape via Wi-Fi, and also lets users browse through stations, or view album artwork during songs.
Snowtape is compatible with Mac OS X 10.5.2 or higher and is available from the company’s online store for $30. SnowRemote is hosted at the App Store, with a price of $1. SnowRemote requires iPhone 3.0 and the latest version of Snowtape.

Typical
Great program, but it doesn't matter as Apple is covering its arse. Too many lawyers (my brother included - grrr) and too many frivolous lawsuits.
I really think I am going to get a used 1st gen iPhone and jailbreak the thing since it is obvious Apple can deny any program it wants.
THIS is the main problem with the App Store and the upcoming iPad. On my Mac Mini and Macbook Pro I can CHOOSE to download a program and if I don't like it, delete it. In Apple's new environment, THEY choose what I can download simply by not allowing it on their store. I don't know what this holds for the future, but I am concerned.
