My reluctance to just accept the subscription model for this app is based on the update that was pushed out before it was ready. It will take me hours to get the app back to the way it was on my iPad. Time I don't really have right now.
The "changing of the guard" was announced here in June. Since then, the new developer has posted just 7 times, once to ask users to join another site to keep up with the changes to come. Isn't that bad form? There is a huge user base here already. That should be evident to the new guy.
That leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Why not take advantage of the users already gathered here? Talk to us here.
When I consider that behavior, along with the update mess, AND a new "pay to play" model, it leaves me cold. It's not the cost at all. It's how it is being handled.
