Best Trade News App for iPhone!!!  By: JonDavid1210 - Mar 11, 2009 Version: 1.0 This app is a must have for those in the entertainment industry! I no longer need to have 10+ Variety.com news feeds on my RSS reader, or have to try and navigate the full site on the iPhone's smallish screen. I still read my copy of Daily Variety each morning, but check then check the app for the latest updates while sitting in L.A. traffic or in my free moments throughout the day. It's ease of use and large print are just want you'd expect in a great app. However, in future updates Variety needs to add TV ratings & pilot pick-ups. This app is not a substitution to reading the trade papers but it works as a great compliment them.

Pretty good!  By: TechDad - Jul 7, 2009 Version: 2.0 Not sure how the older version worked, but this version is pretty solid. Not cluttered and just enough of the top stories. And search isn't bad either.
Update a major improvement  By: Cmarlow1 - Apr 29, 2009 Version: 2.0 Finally, the Variety iPhone developers listen to the users and make some excellent improvements to the app. No more linking to the site to read articles. The photo galleries are optimized for the device and the annoying updater on the app button is gone (hated how it would tally every new piece of content I hadn't read. Good job with the update!
Terrible app  By: celtics head - Mar 31, 2009 Version: 1.0 It was quite bad had like no articles in it the only reason I downloaded it was fotc on the screenshot
Entertainment on the go  By: JaeP - Mar 17, 2009 Version: 1.0 Love having instant access to the latest news and reviews on my iPhone. Doesn't hurt that you also get access to the photo galleries and videos, something that you couldn't do on your BB.

Vast improvement!  By: Sonola777 - 28-Apr-2009 Version: 2.0 This is a far better app than the one that was originally released. Whereas the original just acted as a glorified link to the variety web page, this is a more fully rounded independent app.
