For the third day in a row, Apple's iTunes servers are experiencing issues. Some of the free apps in today's list may once again issue the warning that the item is being modified and that you won't be able to download them at this time. If this message appears for you, try downloading the app through a different source. For example, if you receive the message on your computer, try downloading the app via your iPhone or iPad. We were personally able to download all of the apps in today's list using this workaround. We can only hope that all of Apple's server kinks are worked out by tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!
