If my application sells for like $.99 and the top seller is selling around 600 to 1000 a month, a lot of developer would be spending $1500 just to make themselves to the top. The price would be more than that amount. Just a thought.
I don't like that idea. I really prefer a challenge that favor towards the quality and user friendly capabilities. my 2 cents.
