Auto-renewable subscriptions coming soon to all categories on Apple’s App Store

[Andrew Kimery]

Glad Apple finally changed some of its crappy App Store policies. Hopefully this will help curtail the race-to-the-bottom and make being a software maker a more viable than it currently is.

[Bill Davis] “My problems arise when rather than content, the subscription is applied to a tool that the consumer is forced to pay for in order to maintain ongoing access to their OWN work.

Basically, charging me to subscribe to your creative property is fine. Requiring me to subscribe to maintain access to my own property? Not so much.”

Well said. It’s my problem with CC. Where’s the off-ramp? How do I open my old work once I get off the treadmill…
