  • I'd rather the old releases be left alone as they are bugs and all (including the paid Marvin Classic and iPad-only versions). If the apps are resubmitted, it may not be possible to keep them entirely identical depending on current App Store submission policies.
  • YES!!!!!!!!!! (with extra emphasis). Consider how Infuse is doing it. I actually pay for both in-app Infuse Pro lifetime sub on the main Infuse app as well as the standalone major release Infuse Pro apps for Family Share purposes. Mind, I actually paid for both Marvin 3 (as in-app upgrade) and the paid Marvin sxs app.
  • Yes, I agree.

While as a consumer, I like buy once, use forever, that's not a model that is viable from a developer point of view. Thus all the abandonware one sees in the Apple app store.
