Hmmm, thats kinda disappointing from Apple ,I would have expected alot more from them , they normally do not pull silly stunts like this.

In my opinion i think Apple has a lack of good apps and only thinks about making funny/stupid apps which arent usefull at all.

I vote for categorized apps

they need more apps that are easily accessible by everyone and more organized.

Yep this is yet another example of apple creating a walled garden. I
can see banning malicious apps but that's about it.

I agree, they should allow any app to be listed. If people want to spend money on them, that's their own fault. Since they're starting to ban apps, it's a wonder if iPhone apps development will continue to flourish.

A “just for fun” category is very a good idea, and a good compromise.

I think Apple should just create some categories for these “low utility” apps. Maybe a “just for fun” category, or for items that might consist of racier fare, and “adult” or “mature” category. There's definitely ways to still provide the apps but shunt them off into a separate area of Apple is concerned about bizzaro content clogging up the more highly trafficked channels on the app store.
