Its not about morality. its about creativity!! If nobodys pay for what ppl create why would ppl create anything ?? The time they invest in what they create must be rewarded. Not like all apps creator wants to steal your money !! Apple is ! If not of them the would be barely 25 or 50 cents each. But apple are greedy bastards.

While I am at it, Why isnt there an installous-like made for app creator that could bypass apple by asking for ”donations” throught pay pal ??

Cant believe no one thougth about that already..

copying is not stealing. That’s why piracy is legal in Britain for non-profit purposes. They literally used the definition of stealing and found piracy does not qualify as such. You gotta take a step out of your capitalist country and breathe in open thoughts from the world for a change.

Just because you can’t afford something doesn’t give you the right to steal it. Do you take stuff from stores without paying since you can’t afford them?

If somebody takes an item of property from my house, that is theft. If somebody makes an exact copy of an item of my property, that is not.

Not every app is between 0.99 – $2.00. Good apps are often between 9.00 – $12.99. As a broke college student, I can’t spend all my money on apps. Money traps, all of them.
Oh, and check your punctation next time. It looks ridiculous.

Genius… When you support developers by buying their apps, it allows them to continue making apps. Not every app developer is swimming in money. I have a 99 cent app that makes a few hundred bucks a month, and people pirating my hard work means they want my app but are too selfish to cough up a mere 99 cents.

all apple needs to do is have a try before you buy or a refund policy.

Cool! So you have now justified for those fine gentlemen wrongly branded as thieves in what they do. I hope they find your house soon and get those free stuff from your house :)

I highly doubt you’ll save thousands, that implies you had the money to spend on it in the first place. A more likely scenario is that you don’t have the money to spend on it so you take.

Apple should understand that people are going to do what they please on their own devices. If you own your iphone then its our property. Jailbreaking your phone is completely legal. Rooting your iPhone is old news anyways. I can do ten times more stuff on my Samsung note. I don’t need to pay for tethering since Google and Samsung made it sooo easy hack a way. Apple get a clue your losing the battle.

Paying for something you can get for free will always be an exercise in foolhardiness no matter how much you preach about what it does to the developers. I will always get my apps free because there are so many moralclowns like you that will pay for their apps.

Pirates need people like you around so that we can keep spending our own money on things that we can’t get easily for free. At the end of my life, I will have saved thousands and thousands of dollars by pirating and there will be no magical force that will punish me for what i’ve done. The concept of morality, especially when talking about digital goods, is completely arbitrary. You have to be a fool to be shackled by it.

yes, .99-2.00 is too much. especially for features which should be available for free. Tethering for starters!

cause .99 – $2.00 is way to much to pay for a app……………………..

Just like the company that makes “Whip-It”‘s doesn’t encourage people to get high on inhalants but for some reason they sell these little cartridges of nitrous
in headshops across America; right next to the bongs that say “420 Pot heads” but is also ment only for tobacco consumption.

Apple paid them off and we all know it. But don’t worry too much, China will take care of everything. lol
