📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses scams and spam proliferating on Apple’s newly launched Ping musical social network inside iTunes, with particular concern that many scams are tied to iPhone-related offers. The main “question” raised is essentially why these phishing-style links are spreading on the platform so quickly; one response is lighthearted and jokes about the mixed branding. Overall sentiment is skeptical and amused—frustrated by spam but with a casual tone.

Ping is a cross-between Facebook and Twitter, giving over 160 million iTunes users the ability to build networks of friends and musicians, and read comments by other fans.

It's ironic that the most common scams on Ping right now revolve around Apple's own iPhone.
