I'm not sure why some call the authors choice of 1$ per install disingenuous. Wouldn't that be the averaged out profit per app when you combine paying and non paying users?

Like for each app which costs 5$ I'd expect that there's at least 5 non-paying users using the free version.

Update: Also, the revenue per app doesn't affect the 0.5$ per app install fee. Meaning, if the app is making less than 0.5$ per install, averaged over free + paying users, then one would just be loosing money...
