You know what really makes the world a worse place - in-app purchases. Ads meh, I can take them or leave them (I pay a lot for content), but in-app purchases show no mercy.

Respectfully, I disagree. In-app purchases as an architecture gives me a chance to try out the software, and then purchase it to make the ads go away. That's a compromise I like quite a bit. It's a lot cleaner than having one paid- and one ad-supported version of the same app, too.

IMO there’s nothing wrong with IAPs, just pay-to-play (or even pay-to-win). If a developer wants to release more levels, but wants an extra dollar for them, I’ll probably be willing to fork it over.
