Of course I will pay for an update (whatever the way it will take), but I will prefer to have more regular and continuous updates.

I've always said (here and in other places): one of the success of an app in a store like iOS one, is to maintain the application alive with updates. Does not matter if they are only bugfixes or adding little new things (a new font, a new way to meter pages, whatever), or even new app purchased features.

This way the app continuously moves in the store and the customers see how it is evolving.

More: the only viable way to maintain an income from this kind of stores is the subscription way, but a cheap one. I mean, for example, enable sync across devices via subscription (for example 5 bucks/year). This way, once reached the limit of standalone sells (all target users have the app) the developer can continue maintaining himself with the subscription.

I have in my head a collab project, but if Marvin lives, let Marvin live (But update soon).

BTW, just now will be a great opportunity to release a new version with sync, because iBooks sync is completely broken since 9.3... Maaaaarvin!!!!!! Go!!!!! GO!!!!!!
