But also, there aren't many 30 dollars apps worth buying! It's a weird deadlock. Most app are either crap and free with ads, crap and "free" w/ in-app payments, crap and for $1 or crap and terribly overpriced. For some weird reason, there's little of good development going on.

The weird reason is that customers are totally fine with buying and using crap. Until that changes, there will be no incentive for doing good development.

Customers are buying what's available. It's a feedback loop, but one that's sadly hard to break on the buyer side.
