San Francisco -- Apple is seeking a share of the revenue that third-parties are making off of accessories for its iPod digital music player, CNET News.com reported. The company announced in January its "Made for iPod" program, wherein Apple would provide a special logo and endorsement for official iPod accessories, in return for 10% of wholesale pricing, people familiar with the situation told News.com. The program would not apply to cases and protective covers for the iPod, but would cover accessories that feature an electrical connection to the iPod, such as portable speakers or FM transmitters. "With more than 400 iPod accessories on the market and growing, the Made for iPod logo program is designed to help consumers choose iPod accessories that work properly with their iPods, and also provide participating iPod accessory makers with guidelines and technical specifications to develop their products," Apple said in a statement.
