What happens if I splash out 999 and then LC goes belly up?
Does my purchase work forever producing commercial apps or does it revert to
GPL?

Must you always take such a snippy tone against your lowly subclass
customer base. If LC actually cared about hobbyist or education level
customers, that deal would still stand. Perhaps not publicly, but an
off-list private email surely could be arranged.

Maybe you should have purchased a subscription during one of the _many_

Blast, I said I wouldn't write any more: but this one really "takes the
biscuit".
I don't think this is solely Apple's or Livecode's problem, I think it
is a general tendency where "programming" (and there is a contentious word)
has polarised into 2 camps:

But still interesting. The “code once run anywhere” vs “Native dev” is the
underlying driving force behind HMTL5 app dev.

No, it's not an Apple problem - they're not losing any money over it,
and they're certainly not losing any sleep over it.
I think it's a Livecode Ltd problem (for the reasons described in the
earlier post), though it is partly caused by Apple.
Yeah. it would be great if Livecode Ltd could use

Btw I have nothing against paying for a licence. I own a team licence of
Appcelerator Studio which costs me $3.250/year so that is not my point.
Hmm... If you believe in your idea and business plan then make the investment
just like if you believe the property market will go up then buy a house.
There's risk in getting out of bed in the morning but it doesn't outweigh the

I agree but if you have a brilliant idea for an iOS app and you believe it
will generate money in future you need audiance. And for iOS the only
common way is the AppStore to present your app to buy or offer it as free
download to turn it later if succesfull in a payed version ot subscription
model
I very much doubt the subscription model will go away any time soon. It may be
constructive to determine a price point that hobby developers requiring
proprietary distribution might be prepared to pay but I think the issue you
will bump into is that's a small market so the price point would need
