« Disney Debuts Official Disneyland Podcast | Main | MillionDollarPodcasts Launches »iPodder Lemon Gets New Name - JuiceNovember 13, 2005
"We all knew it was coming," said developer Scott Grayban in a forum post. "Apple went after us over the "iPod" part in our name." The Juice team says that the new name reflects the fact that the application is not limited to working with iPods. "It's time to move beyond the pod," said Martijn Venrooy, a Juice team member. "Most people don't realize that we've shipped support for Windows Media Player for over a year now and we've almost finished WinAmp support. "The Lemon is part of our mythology because of our fresh approach to getting media," said Mark Alexander Posth, the team's content strategist. "After squeezing iPodder out, what remains is pure Juice." The product's full name is Juice Receiver. "All the good short domain names were taken," said Garth Kidd, a Juice programmer, "so you'll have to type juicereceiver.sf.net or juicereceiverstore.com to get a copy of the re-branded software. Sorry about that." "Please do it soon," added Kidd. "I'd like to keep my house." Juice has evolved from its basic beginnings as the world's first podcasting software to a mature, fully featured application. Juice (as iPodder) has been downloaded over 1 million times since its debut last year. Juice will continue to be donation supported, based on open source software and licensed under the GPL (General Public License). Source: Juice Commentsgreat guys!!
