Depends on who the target customer is. As an enterprise I'd love to pay for a local application wherever possible. Oracle and MS still make billions on what are effectively local database applications.
For consumers projects - especially desktop - it's more difficult. Many would rather pirate software than pay a few hundred dollars a year for a licence. However, the advent of highly controlled app stores has mitigated this somewhat.
