Dec 26th 2011 8:58PM (Joystiq)Instapaper's free version goes on extended hiatus, dev explains why
Apr 28th 2011 11:11PM (TUAW.com)I read his whole post earlier and IIRC, he said that the ad supported version was crippled. I have downloaded several free full-featured apps that I later paid for because I was using them daily and wanted to support their devolpment further. If lot of his free app users didn't convert to full app, it probably didn't fit their needs, or didn't see the full potential.
I wanted to try Instapaper because I kept reading about it (I read lot of tech blogs and Marco is sort of a darling of Apple related blogsphere. Gruber @ daring fireball I think has a man crush on him :)). Almost bought it before I realized that I have no use for it. I'm convinced that Marco could charge $20 for it and still do well because of the circle jerk around it/him. Nothing wrong with it, just saying that not all devs are in his position (he mentions this angle in his post but I think he's underestimating the kind of "word of mouth" advertising his app gets).
