They’ve been pretty darn good about keeping their other apps updated following a one-time purchase, and I’m just glad to see any new product launched with an option other than subscription pricing. Not sure what happened with Pixelmator/Pixelmator Pro, but whatever it was didn’t offend me too badly at the time. I’ll probably pay $99 for this app in large part to reward a dev for giving users the option to pay upfront. I don’t mind paying 3-5x the annual subscription cost to get a paid-up license, and the “pay once, pay again if you want new features released after your first year” seems pretty fair. But $50 a year, ever year, into perpetuity for, say, a weather, calendaring or Twitter app seems pretty stupid to me.
