A Software Developer Fraser Speirs recently came accross an iTunes dialog box which is somewhat unsual. It indicates a feature that will give you a discounted price to upgrade an older version of apps while it also allows to purchase the items at full price. The strange is Apple put a ‘Buy’ button instead of ‘OK’ button as instructed on the dialog box. A rumor said this could be something that developers has been waiting for since long time ago, that is the paid upgrades feature. Said to say, if this is true it’s not a good news for iTunes custumers although good for developers and of course Apple.
