That agrees with my reading. > "Free apps" need to be "free" forever, not time-limited. That does not agree with my reading. There is no such stipulation of "free" meaning forever. They just want any money to flow through them when they buy the full version. == This is not intended to prevent distribution of free trial versions of the Product with an "upsell" option to obtain the full version of the Product: *Such free trials for Products are encouraged*. However, if you want to collect fees after the free trial expires, you must collect all fees for the full version of the Product through the Payment Processor on the Market. In this Agreement, "free" means there are no charges or fees of any kind for use of the Product. All fees received by Developers for Products distributed via the Market must be processed by the Market's Payment Processor. === Nathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
