Sync iTunes to iPhone/iPod Via WiFi… Maybe [VIDEO]

A new app might be coming to the App Store quite soon, if one developer has his way. This application would accomplish the technologically simple but economically/politically complicated task of syncing a user’s iTunes library with his iDevice of choice over a WiFi connection only — no tethering required.

The video below is a sneak peek of an app called WiFiSync that might be coming soon to the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. “For the first time ever,” its creator writes, users can “sync your device with iTunes over a wireless network.” It appears that users could also use this app to share music collections between various other folks’ iTunes libraries, as well.

Naysayers are doubting that this app will ever make it through the App StoreApp Store application process. However, AndroidAndroid users have this functionality already. So,if WiFiSync never hits the App Store, you can always go get a Droid.

The developer, Greg Hughes, is a 2nd-year computer science student at the University of Birmingham in Great Britain. We wish him the best of luck.

What do you think — is this an application you’d buy and use? Do you think it’ll make it into the App Store?
