Exactly. It will therefore appeal to the market of geeks with disposable income - people who enjoy paying for something cool and exclusive. People who buy $500 mobile surveillance bots on ThinkGeek, mainly because nobody else has one.
Maybe the solution to the "race to the bottom" in the App store is simply to make really high quality apps (not claiming that W@ is) and sell them for a really high price.
Though, personally, I wouldn't buy such apps unless I felt safe about being able to back them up, transfer them to new phones, and most importantly that they wouldn't get "removed" from the store at a moment's notice.
- ptomato 17y agoOther than the "removed from the store" thing, you can backup the app, use it on a new phone, redownload it without repaying for it, etc.
- cmelbye 17y agoApple is very good about refunds. Their support is friendly, and in my experience they've had the refund processed within a week. Also, the App Store allows users to redownload applications to new devices under the same account as needed, and applications can be synced to multiple devices within iTunes.
