Pretty sure you guys covered it... but in short -- we wanted to put a TON of really awesome music in the game, that really isn't possible for free.. So, to take advantage of in-app purchases, we released it for 99c. At that time it was: "Free apps are free, paid apps are paid.." but everything is different now...
Then of course, I need my morning coffee on saturdays ;)
BTW -- Eliminate Pro is pretty badass. I just wish I could get used to the controls....

Lets see.....
5 Reasons TTR3 Costs a Buck....
1. Ed wants his morning coffwe on Saturday as well
2. Bart decided he wanted to make people not have THEIR coffee for one day so they would buy TTR3
3. The company needs money to make Riddim Ribbon
4. They want to
5. They Deserve it.
Really dude whats it take to pick up .99c? NOTHING. Don't drink coffe one day. Using a "Take A penny" tray take 2 every day for 2 weeks....
I mean really!?
Tapulous DESERVES this money, it costs US nothing. it helps them get Apple on their side yada yada yada.

Inappropriate?Why so mean? It isn't Tapulous' fault. Apple decided to allow in app purchasing on free apps AFTER Tapulous released TTR3.

Inappropriate?They deserve the money. Period. There are those out there who won't even use the in-app purchasing in TTR3.........

Inappropriate?Well, TTR3 was released before Apple decided to make apps with in-app purchases free.
And as BPP said, Tapulous deserves the money for the hard work they put into to this, and the hard work they continue to put into the game.
Without the money, tapulous won't be able to release popular songs or games anymore.
And it's only 99c, it's not like the $199+ you spent for your iPhone/iPod Touch.

Inappropriate?It's not 'bout a buck... It's they are lying! They can say "due to hardwork" but instead of it, they say " needed to take advantage of in app purchases"!
I’m frustrated
-
they released it after in app purchases were allowed in free apps. What do you not understand about that???? -
Read my comment bellow... the apple store terms changed after it was relleaseed -
Inappropriate?Anonoz, you don't have your facts straight..... I am sorry but They released about 3-4 weeks back (Maybe farther). This means they could not get free in app purchases.... This means they HAD to release it for .99c.
NOW it is for in app purchases and not pissing off the close to 1-2 million users.
I’m unsure
-
Inappropriate?The apple store terms change about a month a go ( 2 weeks after ttr3 came out ) so I would keep quiet if I had no idea
-
Good point to that one. -

again! the nice guy response...
you are my nice-guy idol! -
Lol you don't want to see the other side... When the Tapulous interns get out of whack, things can get messy... -
Inappropriate?I would gladly pay a buck for this game and buy some songs. But, for the hardwork they put into it and their games, I would gladly pay up to 5 bucks for TTR3. Anybody that says this is rip-off should just SHUT,UP!!!!!! It's like saying why isn't Terminator for free.
I’m indifferent
