App Store Rejections: Apple Rejects Ikaraoke App, Patent Filed Published For A Karaoke Player

Of course, the "duplicate functionality" reason is nothing new, but Apple's next step is: just a few weeks after rejecting the application, they have filed a patent for including karaoke functionality into the iPod app.
