If you want to imagine D2 now, just think of everything that could be converted to an in-app purchase. Computer games have avoided it more than iOS has, but that concept has had more of a detrimental effect on the quality of games out there than anything else I can think of. It's incredibly hard to find quality, one-time purchase iOS games because the market for them isn't sustainable.

We don't have to imagine, we have D3 and it's not as bad as you made it out to be.
I didn't mind in real money auction, then again I wasn't hardcore (not just the mode) .
Heh, the irony.. I am working on a (what I deem to be) quality one-purchase game.
