Wow! I can't believe this thread has gone to 4 pages! Here's my ten-cent's-worth:
Mike has said the price for the new version is going to be around $12. I'm guessing that most users of MS are at least semi-pro musicians, and find it a valuable, time-saving, lugging-loads-of-books-around-saving, well-designed, user-friendly app.
Is anybody SERIOUSLY thinking "Well, I won't buy the new version if it's $12, but I will if I get an upgrade price of $8? You're basing your decision on a difference of four measly bucks? Come on, guys, get real! How about we all decide to have one less JD and coke at the next gig and spend what we save on a new version of the app instead?
I remember the days when there were no Android/Apple apps, and we had to pay hundreds of dollars/pounds for a application that would run on a PC platform. And then we had to pay almost the same again for an upgrade.
I honestly think that most users will gladly pay the price of a couple of beers for an app they use regularly, especially professionally. If people are seriously worried about the price, then they've really not understood how much time and effort has gone into the development of this app.
I for one have spent WELL over $12 on buying power-ups for Bejewelled Blitz and other in-app purchases. I know which is worth more to me. How about you?
