I keep seeing people including advertising in the list of so-called benefits of the Mac App Store to developers but I don't get it. Exactly how and where has Apple done any advertising for Bare Bones? Or any other developer? Sure, people might be more aware of the App Store but you still have to know what you're looking for to find BBEdit there. It's no different to me than, say, searching on macupdate.com. FWIW, the developers I spoke with told me their costs for selling their own software runs closer to 10%. Personally, I think Apple is charging too much. I could see 20% as reasonable though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
