I think the "race to the bottom" was due to the initial confusion of the marketplace and lack of discipline. I am noticing many more apps charging greater than one dollar (usually 2-5) now than before and I expect the trend to continue.
I also think that apps that pull the trick you're referencing will probably get hit hard in the reviews section -- people get annoyed at that, and it tends to spark negative comments.
