How does that work with iOS?

It's hard to imagine they could be so Draconian.
We are just finalizing our iValentina for iPhone, which is going to be
released for free. Our approach to iPhone has simply to be to give away a
bit of software that doesn't directly touch on our profitability model but
rather encourage users towards buying what we do sell.

I think there is a simple question to ask -

Do I get to own or have access to the registration data for users of my
product?

If the answer is Apple does, but you don't, it is 100% contrary to where
we've been going with software sales since the floppy days.


yes; this is monkey business; if I have worked my bottom off on a piece of software
I am hardly keen to allow somebody else either access to or ownership of my
user database; as, certainly, they will be using that information for their own ends
rather than mine.

When my Devawriter Pro is, finally, released, you will have to come to me to get it, and I will keep your details close to my chest so that I can "fool" you into buying more of my stuff rather than letting Apple, Snapple or Frapple peddle their stuff to you.
