Isn't VLC GPL? I thought the AppStore was not compatible with the GPL.

No, you're right. When someone makes a bad decision let's hate on them for life; even if they do an about-face. Apple is a corporation , and isn't human. Don't be fooled; they are only responding to market pressure.
Market pressure? Apple acted the same way for two years until this recent change in policy, and they were doing swimmingly . No need to call out the man , just applaud a company for taking a step in the right direction.
Is there a reason there isn't an iPhone version?
Too bad we can't remotely access video files on the computer.

The VLC authors seem not to think so. It's their call.
There are tons of VLC authors, only one needs to complain. This sounds like it's going to happen sooner or later.

It's a great reason to sing their praise and encourage them to do more of the same. I don't see why it wouldn't be. edit: but no reason not to give them shit for anything bad they do, of course.
> I don't see why it wouldn't be. Because it technically rewards bad behaviour, you wouldn't be singing their praise now if they had not messed up first. 1) mess up 2) do an about face 3) reap praise.
