Dropping like a bomb on some of the blah musical offerings of her contemporaries, Haunted was one of the best albums of 2000, obliterating the competition.

Apple Drops iPhone Dev NDA
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Apple unexpectedly dropped its controversial nondisclosure agreement for iPhone software developers on Wednesday. The move means third party iPhone app developers, authors, and trainers can finally discuss the software development environment and share information with others.
In a statement on the company’s Web site, Apple said "the NDA has created too much of a burden on developers, authors and others interested in helping further the iPhone’s success, so we are dropping it for released software."
According to Apple, the relaxed NDA still prohibits discussions about unreleased software and features.
Developers have been frustrated with Apple’s ongoing stance prohibiting them from discussing iPhone software development even amongst themselves. Many have claimed that the restrictions have prevented them from building better apps because they can’t collaborate with other coders.
Removing the NDA also means that publishers can begin releasing books on coding for the iPhone and iPod touch -- many of which have been collecting dust waiting for this day.
