Apple to ban iphone concert filming?

[Laggy.RETURNS]

I'm tired of apple trying to impose their rules and regulations on my behavior.
I could live with their attempts to discourage pirated files on their devices, but c'mon, this goes too far

To disable my phone camera if I try and videotape a concert?
Fuck you apple.
Fuck you.

This is why I will be sticking with android

[Bishop]

What? Really?

I mean, okay, it's not like iPhones produce great results from taping anyway, but that is seriously lame.

Damn you Apple.

They are getting sued over iCloud too. ;D

Extremely lame.

[itrainmonkeys]

Wow....screw that. What's the real issue here? Fans who want to have a moment from a show they love that they can go back and watch?

I understand if people were recording full movies or full shows but whatever....this is lame.

[lordrockinhood]

How will it know what show is what?

If I want to film my friend's band at the local bar, is my phone going to lock down because of it?

Not to mention, there are artists out there who actually encourage fans to film them.

Just one more reason I have no use for an iphone

[Laggy.RETURNS]

its a new technology they're patenting. The band can set something up that will send out a signal that will disrupt any iphone cameras directed at the stage.
I'll be taking pictures with my android and laughing at all the frustrated iphone users.

Beginning to really hate apple`

That's true. I have a freakin camera that records in HD. What am I worried about?

Highly doubtful.
Google is pretty cool about stuff
Plus since it's open format I bet if they did implement something like that someone will probably make an app to modify it or something

[Funky Munky]

In the end it's just a piece of hardware, if they really get you that bent then just jailbreak the thing and do what you want with it.

I recently jailbroke mine... I haven't even grazed the surface of what I can do with it. I'm not regretting it, though.
