When full price is only $3? Absolutely no objections.

And implies that purchasers of Tweetie 1.x will be eligible for a free upgrade. But, because Tweetie 2 is a whole new program with a completely new foundation and new features, that it is worth more than $2.99, but that the price for the new and swesomer version 2 will be the same as version 1.

But it's 3 bucks.

I've never used Tweetie, but I'll buy Tweetie 2 not just because it looks like a solid product, but because I applaud the developer's decision, and any other developer that makes any attempt to wean consumers away from this ridiculous sense of entitlement and help curb this trend in devaluing software.

We'll see.

I don't think there will be cries of outrage.

No way it's worth another $3.

To me, that is a dealbreaker and the reason I don't use Tweetie v.1.0

And are you a user of the current Tweetie app? If so, no objection to paying full price for Tweetie 2?

I'll buy that.
