I'd like an App Store with a "if you delete it within X days you get an automatic refund" model. That would make buying apps risk free and refunding them hassl

  Doesn't Google Play work like that? The rebate period might be a lot shorter though, perhaps even minutes. I think they started out with a day but it was exploited too much.

    It is 15 minutes now. (Which is far too short to even begin to use a lot of apps like games that download tons of additional resources without mentioning it in the app description.)

  The failure of that model are the apps which provide only short-term functionality. e.g., I'll probably only need my offline map of Brussels or that puzzle game for a few days. But my being through with them within 96 hours doesn't mean I'm entitled for a refund-- in fact, they probably served their purpose! Such a refund model would rob developers of that niche.
