I liked the first comment (in the post) by Andrew Maine. Basically, it's simple math. If you expect a 5% conversion on a $1.99 app (which will earn you $1.39 after Apple's cut), the most you can spend for a viable business model is 6 or 7 c

The fact that you don't know how to make your tools easy to use doesn't justify making them complex nightmares. UNIX (and open source software in general, with a few notable exceptions) is difficult because it's built by thousands of hacker
