Cydia Opens iPhone App Store for the Jailbroken Community [Jailbreak!]

Cydia, a software installer for jailbroken iPhones and iPods touch, today opened their version of the App Store to allow the more underground developers to be compensated for their work. Bring on the porno apps!

Cydia’s founder, 27-year-old Californian grad student Jay Freeman, will apparently charge about the same commission as Apple does to developers wanting to list their apps in the new Cydia Applications. A paid app store will not only reward developers for their efforts but possibly lead to a wider variety of non-Apple-approved apps. Apparently, more illicit app stores are in the works, including an adult-themed one, which we will of course examine at great length.
