That title is highly misleading. I am reading you on a newsreader (google reader) and all I can see is your title until I click the link.

Please do not post such misleading titles or I will have to remove my subscription to your blog. Sad

OK, I am sorry or that.

Note that in past some guy produced a fake iTunes for Windows Mobile with use of visual studio and many publications picked it as real although he admitted it to me etc.... so this time indeed kind-of it is possible.

If you have suggestion how should I entitle this news item - let me know!

Have you even used an iPhone? You really should do your homework befre posting such nonsense. Posted from my iPhone whilst listening to music on it, shock!

How about 'WinMo can play DRM free songs from iTunes'. As previously posted, your title suggests Apple have released iTunes officially for WinMo.

I repeat: 3rd party, i.e. not from Apple.

and yes, I was using iPhone 3G but not too long.

I've just tested it using a few 3rd party apps from the store, whilst playing music and yes it works fine,

Maybe you should check before posting, rather than afterwards!

If it's DRM free, then why the heck didn't you just convert it to MP3? That's a setting in iTunes. What a waste of an article.

Also, compared to the total amount of music on iTunes, which is impressive, very few tunes are DRM-free in the iTunes store.

OK, I removed that sentence about iPhone not being able to run music and other app from the article. Thanks.

no, M4A files + that Windows Mobile can use (playing, album art) music purchased at iTunes.

You should still change the title. It's totally misleading.
