Apple Launches Free App of The Week

It looks like Apple has finally woken up to the value of a sale. They’re launching a new weekly promotion in iTunes today which will feature a paid app being given away for free. The first app is Cut the Rope: Experiments. There’s both an iPad and iPhone version, and it’s the first paid app to be discounted to free by Apple.

Apple is also rolling out out new “editors’ choice” promotions which highlight apps that are currently in popular or trendy.
