Actually, that 15 minute policy is a big source of piracy. All it takes is a rooted phone and you can get ANY app you want for free. Honestly, from a developer's point of view, Apple's way of doing business is a lot better. Also, if you're

I feel very proud when a fellow (or two) romanian comes out with something like this. I love it, and I think I'll use it in the future. Great work!
