Okay, so my app is priced $4.99, and most users agree it's worth the price. What would be the corresponding price in India given the standard of living? What about China? There may be some international cost of living stats out there, but I think that someone who knows the country for real may understand and feel certain things better. -- Olivier -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
