Podcast #4 - iPhone Development & Digital Music

by Matt 5. October 2009 15:27

In this episode Chris, Matt and Eric welcome this week's guest, Bradley, to the podcast.  This week the guys discuss iPhone development, the app approval process, and MonoTouch.

Note: We apologize for Bradley's microphone not working for the first few minutes.

  • The guys start out by discussing Objective-C, and the differences between it and other similar languages.
  • To deploy apps to the App store, you have to buy the $99 developer license from Apple.  You can download the SDK at not cost.
  • MonoTouch allows writing C# that compiles down to run on an iPhone or iPod Touch.
  • Writing iPhone applications requires running OSX, plus the developer license from Apple.
  • Marketing is an important part of an iPhone app.  If no one knows about your app, you won't make very much money.
  • Lastly the guys discuss the state of music in the digital age.  Are CD's still relevant?
  • If you still think CD's are viable, send us an e-mail to podcast@craftycoders.com why you think so!  We'd love to hear from you.

If you have a question for the podcast, please send an e-mail to podcast@craftycoders.com.  You can either send your question in text form, or record it and send us the audio file.
