Hah yeah of course it did! It's weird, the worst that would happen back in the day was a program on your PC would get abandoned. On iOS, you're liable to download an "update" to something (like Galaxy on Fire 2 HD, which WAS a great space game for iOS) and suddenly it's been acquired by a new company, and the $9 you spent has been turned into a F2P garbage, ad-ridden experience.
