We have posted a submitted version 1.2.2 of SF Bay News to the iTunes App Store. This update doesn’t add any new features, but unfortunately it does remove the San Jose Mercury News feeds.
We received a Cease and Desist from the Bay Area News Group asking us to remove the links to their rss feeds. Since we are a small development company, we don’t have the resources to fight this in the legal system and have decided to update the application to remove the feeds.
We feel that this is an unfortunate situation for our customers, as this reduces the amount of content that is available. We will be looking at ways for our customers to be able to get access to the content that they want to view.
We will keep you informed as developments happen.
