I wouldn't purchase this app, but it's not because of the price, and it's certainly not a lack of utility. It's because I just wouldn't use it. That being said, there's certainly a market for it, and I'm all for the higher priced applications. I think it's time developers start being allowed to support themselves off of the applications they develop. The race to the bottom is fine for fart applications, but if you want something niche specific, and something that directly you should expect to pay the price of something that has a smaller niche.
