Would someone create this article? See [1] Famous creators of iBeer, iMilk, iMunchies, and more for iPhone and iPod touch. 98.230.214.136 ( talk) 12:43, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
Aha. How should that work? Just another Jailbreak app store? The article sounds much like an ad for Hottrix … -- 94.247.216.98 ( talk) 21:01, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
Could anyone add an infobox? 98.230.214.136 ( talk) 15:44, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
I am Hottrix's outside corporate counsel and a relatively new Wikipedian (but am very much enjoying it so far). Mr. Sheraton is one of the (many) inventors of the Hottrix Apps and has appeared in a few of its videos (along with numerous others), but otherwise NOT related to the company. If there was personal information about ALL of the inventors (such as Steve Charney), then the Wikipedia entry on Hottrix would be less valuable to community and not encyclopedic in nature. I am trying to assist in coordinating a good outcome here and help the community as a whole. If people think it newsworthy related to Mr. Sheraton's non-Hottrix issues, then hopefully someone will post a personal page about Steve Sheraton (and any other relevant Hottrix inventor/contractor).
The information that was being posted about Mr. Sheraton IN HOTTRIX'S ENTRY, was, first and foremost, not relevant to Hottrix; and secondly, it is false, and is the current subject of litigation and other potential defamation litigation. The litigation related thereto, may be referenced on Mr. Sheraton's personal page (if it is deemed relevant by the community) - but is not relevant as to Hottrix, LLC and information like that on a company's page will hurt Wikipedia.
I asked Mr. Sheraton to reach out to Atama, the Wikipedian who did such a great job preparing the initial article - since some of the information on my client's entry, should not be listed there. I was impressed at the initial article as it was VERY WELL RESEARCHED (and I was quite impressed with the responsiveness of Atama - he is a real valuable Wikipedian) - I was forwarded the following e-mail sent by Mr. Sheraton.

Subject: Wikipedia e-mail; re: Hottrix entry
Hi Atama,
First of all: Congrats on the stellar Hottrix entry on Wikipedia.
It's an art to do this and I am amazed x times a day when I see great Wikipedia entries while doing my own research.
I was all the more surprised to find info about the company I founded many years ago.
Hats off!
I just read in your correspondence with Hottrix's attorney Jason Fisher that you are having a rough time getting clean online references about Hottrix and myself.
A lot of the nifty stuff isn't spidered by search engines (for various reasons) and I keep nice URLs more or less handy for all the interviews I do.
I would be ever so honored to assist you with the Hottrix entry or an entry on the ominous Steve Sheraton ;-)
I am pleased to read your comments about the "defamation of living persons" issue. Without trying to break my NDA I might suggest that aforementioned quote could be one of the reasons Jason contacted you... Thus it would be wonderful we could not just improve the amazing Wikipedia project but also make sure everything stays clean by means of intellect, research, and tasty online references rather than legal muscle.
It would be great fun to assist you with your stellar work.
Please let me know how I can help.
Best Regards,
Steve Sheraton
I hope this clears up some of the controversy - and thank you all for the time and attention you have spent on this matter.

Can someone give a better example URL to an imix playlist? The one currently on Wiki is not available to the Swedish iTunes Music Store and probably not available to quite a number of other music stores.
I have the impression that iMixes can only be accessed from within the countrys store, where it was created. So iMixes created within the swedish iTunes Music store can only be accessed by users registred with the swedish store. I did not find any document which discribes this matter. If you give somebody the iMix as a present this is only possible within the same countrys iTunes store. So thats why I think you cannot access this iMix --NimeoB
