Thanks Ricardo for the reply--Apple's motives seems sensible. Am I correct in my understanding that even if I attach my iPod to my computer and navigate to the list of installed apps, I still can't remove the app of interest with the use of iTunes? I tried but could not find a way of doing so from within iTunes though it seems very possible.

Apple just keeps a list of apps you’ve purchased/installed in case you would like to download it again. This is how they allow you to redownload something without being charged again.
