It's no secret that Apple is very protective of its App Store. Its submission guidelines have to be some of the toughest in the industry. The Cupertino company even took Amazon to court over the moniker.

Walmart's video streaming service Vudu's got a new app. But don't look for it in the App Store because you won't find it there. Instead, Vudu is a web app that can be accessed directly from your browser.
