When it said "Bogus Charges" and "Apple" I just thought someone picked up an iMac.

And this is exactly why you don't link your credit cart/bank account to your iTunes account (or any online service for that matter).

Sorry, but this i highly doubt this is apple "trying to steal some more money".

Seems like a clear cut case of PEBKAC.

sounds like the apple got a worm... or worse.. only half a worm!

I wonder what will happen when it will happen to most costumers.

will they shut the service down or just tell them that those charges applies ??

The real news here is that there are people who actually pay for music!

I'd rather takes my chances on getting a virus through torrents (never happens) than letting a company hold my credit card details.

Maybe Apple we're running OSX on their servers (and the hacking competitions in recent years have shown us just how secure an operating system that is...)

How said Apple never crash, never have virus, never been hacked, never make mistake ?!?
Apple publicity said that!

The fact is your Apple could crash, could have virus, could be hacked and Apple make so many mistakes.

Stick on one module (iTunes) is a funny MESS now!

Um are there kids in the house? Kids often know more about how tech works than their parents and often times use that. It happens with pay per view all the time. "No Dad I didn't order Lord of the G-Strings." Why can't it happen with iTunes?

Biggest problem with iStore's method of one click purchases. Credit card / Banking info should be asked while purchasing.
