> you should be allowed to set the pricing of your app however you like.

What about being allowed to curate apps in your app store however you like?

Sure, but it doesn't seem like they are rejecting the app because of its functionality or quality, but the price point. Software that serves a niche isn't going to get the mass downloads required to fund the development a low price point per sale requires. There is a use case for apps costing more than $10. The Samsung store allows for in-app subscriptions, at 2 bucks a month the app is going to cost the user more than $10 over the span of a year, heck even over the course of 6 months.

But yeah, if Samsung doesn't like it, I say screw 'em and just put it on the Play Store instead.
