    One of the hardest pieces I’ve ever written, and one I’m still deeply conflicted about. http://www.imore.com/app-store-disconnect …pic.twitter.com/njTMr9476j

        @reneritchie “We'd rather have an endless supply of cheap than we would a few precious pieces”—nicely said, and sadly true.

        @reneritchie :) We should talk sometime. Photography: #2 in downloads, not even top 10 in revenue. *All* the dough was in ads (IG, SC, etc.)

        @reneritchie thank you for that. Btw, if you are interested, I’d love to have you as a beta tester of an app I’m working on.

        @reneritchie I’m still making money selling calculator widgets, so I’m hopeful there’s a big enough niche of people out there to sustain it.

        @jamesthomson I think so, I’m just not sure how far that scales?

        @reneritchie Don't think the market for my stuff is changing, it's just there are another 500m people on the platform which distorts.

        @reneritchie Different apps require different approaches, in some cases an indie developer can come up with a better product than a company.

        @parcel_app Agreed, I think I said as much in the piece?
