This probably makes more sense and they wouldn't have needed to give up a 30% cut to Apple. Right now, I don't see how they will be able to continue to update

Right now, I don't see how they will be able to continue to update the app once they hit 100,000 users whilst preventing the app from being purchased by new users via the Mac App Store. In order to offer updates via the MAS, your app needs to be available to sale to new customers.
- briandear 14y agoThey could just raise the price to $1000 once they get close to the token limit.
- mikeash 14y agoOr just make it free, since it's no longer useful for new users.
- kaisdavis 14y agoThat's incorrect. I believe I heard this via Cable on John Gruber's 'The Talk Show,' but you can still have an app in the MAS and provide updates even if the app is not available for sale.
