And this is your experience running a sustainable business or just
theory? ;-)
There may be some merit for "going for the gold" but then there is some
merit in amortizing your skills and knowledge especially for products
that the Market isn't already flooded with. One very successful business
I worked for was the founder's third try at something. He would claim
it was all serendipity. I can assure you there are no "sure deals" or
"sure formulas" for success. In fact zigging when others are zagging can
be useful. If it is in your destiny then you will succeed.

Same here, however that's not really how sustainable businesses are
built... these all gravitate to where the money is.

have something to use in that field for free that I make available too.
I'd keep it just at $10. Perhaps raise it. If it's not worth $10 (or
more), then neither the developer nor the users have a play at the
particular app in the mobile space. You're not going to squeeze $5-a-
pop users out of it that wouldn't complain either.
It's a niche market app and I know that market very well being involved
with it for 12 years. The $10 app has features that some of that niche
won't use so cutting those gives a $5 product that is still useful and
above the level of the free stuff. The people that really need the
features in the $10 will buy it. Understanding the psychology of your
market is very important. To a degree my customers are somewhat
counter-culture and just getting a device (either phone or tablet) can
be a big purchase decision for them. It was that way on the Palm years
ago until the started offering sub $100 devices.
