Dear Apple: Please stop being such a Scrooge

Public Radio Exchange, a leading developer of iPhone applications for public radio stations and programs, is promoting an online petition that asks Apple to change its policy barring charitable giving on the iPhone. "Apple is a leader when it comes to producing life-changing innovations, but at the moment, the company is also making it harder to do good in the world," the petition, addressed to Apple CEO Steve Jobs, states. As of this morning, the petition has garnered more than 1,150 signatures. PRX Project Director Rekha Murthy compiled a round-up of blog links on Apple's ban on nonprofit gifting.
