No Nine Inch Nails for Iphone

Although it’s hardly been a secret that the music of Trent Reznor and his band, Nine Inch Nails, isn’t appropriate for all age groups, a Nine Inch Nails-themed application for the iPhone was rejected by Apple because it contained potentially offensive content, the Web site Pitchfork.com reported.

Over the weekend, Mr. Reznor published an e-mail message that he received from Apple’s iPhone developer group at his official Web site, nin.com.

Apple wrote in the message that it would not carry the Nine Inch Nails iPhone application because it offered a streaming version of the band’s song “The Downward Spiral,” which Apple said was “objectionable content,” according to the e-mail message. On his Web site, Mr. Reznor wrote that though he loved Apple products, he urged the company to “think your policies through.” Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
