Music news from the band Nine Inch Nails that I wanted to share since it’s my way of shamelessly plugging my favorite band iPhone- and Blackberry-App related. Currently on tour in Europe, frontman Trent Reznor shed some light on the NIN.com forum about iPhone App version 1.0.5 and the pending Blackberry application:

Blackberry NIN app / Android: the Blackberry version has been much more difficult than expected and will obviously not be done in time for any NIN shows. It’s not dead, but it’s not right around the corner. Android – the priority was on the BB version, so don’t hold your breath. Apple 3.0 bug-fix: finished for over a month but rejected by Apple a second time for reasons so stupid it’s not worth going into.

This isn’t the first time Reznor has encountered resistence from Apple. Perhaps developers and musicians out there can attain a breadcrumb of solace that when it comes to the riddle-filled maze of getting an app approved, we’re in this together.
