The iPad 2 starts at $450, users shouldn’t need to shell out another $50 on apps right out of the box. I have 53 apps on my iPad 2 right now, and only paid for like, 2 of them. Also, app prices range from $0.99 all the way up to stinkin $10.99 and beyond. I can’t fathom paying that much for an app, really. I’m not against paying for apps, though – I’ve spent nearly $50 on apps on the Android market – perhaps that’s why I’m hesitant to spend money on iOS apps.

This [insert brand of car] cost [however many thousands of dollars], I can’t fathom having to buy things like replacement floor mats, oil changes, gas, batteries, windshield wipers, car registration, or rearview mirror dice for it.
The perception that months and years of hard work and post-sales support are not worth the price of a few coffees, teas, or happy meals is why we can’t have nice things.
(via chartier)If an App fills a need, buy it. I don’t know why we sometimes think that software should be free. Is it the hacker/pirating mentality from the Windows crowd?
