procedure to buy software

Title:
Buying $0 apps on the Software Center
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
This isn't a bug in the traditional sense however, it bugs me and i'm
sure, lots of other people, so i'm registering it as a bug cos it
seems no one else has.
In all other App stores I know, apps that are free (i.e $0) require no
payment procedure in order for them to be installed on your device.
However, in USC, some free apps are priced and $0 and require you to
go through the whole payment procedure, even though you are not
actually paying for anything. I don't think this is right. USC should
be able to know that those apps are free and allow the user to just
download them instead of attempting to pay. Thanks.
