I think this hits close to home for a lot of people. It's not about the small amount of money to pay for the app, mostly what stops me is that I don't know what I'm getting for that $5. It feels like I'm potentially throwing money down the drain. I've also paid for games apps (the most was around $20, I would pay more). I'd like to pay "premium" $ for a premium product on the app store, but I generally don't see that as an option. Periodically, I'll glance at the games available on the iOS store and the quality is night and day compared to PC/console. Maybe people think apps are not worth buying because they're charging pennies? What happened to making a solid product and not being afraid to charge for it?
