iTunes Store still has Plenty of Porn

Apple reportedly took recent action to remove a bunch of boobie and bikini apps from the iTunes store. The reason, ostensibly, is that kids found them and that offended their parents. As we've demonstrated in our story "5 Sexy Apps Still In The iTunes Store," Apple's policy seems arbitrary and incomplete. And that's just its apps policy.

Leave the apps out of the equation, and you'll find that the iTunes store is actually full of porn. Chock full of porny, porny porn. I just spent a dirty half-hour plumbing the depths. (Sorry, Ziff-Davis IT department.)

Of course, I personally don't want a media landscape that's entirely dumbed down to what I think is safe for my four-year-old daughter to watch. I'm an adult. I want to be able to guide my kid's viewing, while being able to watch, listen to, and read adult material.

Let's start with audiobooks.
