The former price was required because for every copy of Sita ldquo;sold,rdquo; I had to pay almost $2 to a href=http://www.sitasingstheblues.com/license.html#total-compliance target=_blankextortionate corporate licensors/a. Thatrsquo;s a flat fee; doesnrsquo;t matter what the sale price is. So selling Sita apps for the customary $.99 would result in a huge loss for me, since Irsquo;d be paying almost a dollar more for each one./p p The solution of course was to make it a href=http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sita-sings-the-blues-free/id358382998?mt=8 target=_blankFREE (gratis)/a. Theyrsquo;re all strongPromotional/strong Copies. No sale, no license fee. To support a href=http://www.marsapp.com/Mars Yau/a, who created the app, and me, who created the movie, you can buy the a href=http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sita-wallpaper/id357419952?mt=8 target=_blankSita Wallpaper App/a for $.99. And of course you can always a href=http://www.sitasingstheblues.com/donate.html target=_blankdonate/a to the a href=../../sita_distribution target=_blankSita Distribution Project/a./p p I#39;m especially gratified by app develope Mars Yau#39;s correct use if the a href=http://questioncopyright.org/creator_endorsedCreator Endorsed Mark/a.
