If the idea of paying for apps for your iPhone/iPod touch just gets your goat, not only are you cheap, but you'll be happy to learn that the Fairplay DRM has been allegedly hacked. The hack strips the DRM from App Store purchases and allow apps to be played on unauthorized iPhones.

As with most hacks, you'll need a jailbroken iPhone, XCode, and some command line experience.

The Mac|Life Posse wants to remind everyone that developers are people too. They put their pants on just like the rest of us - one leg at a time. Except once their pants are on, they make sweet apps.
