In reference to the comment on users shelling out $40 for a new "game"
[can we stick the work "program" in here?  I still like app's, etc, better 
than games! ;-)]:  if the game or whatever is *WORTH* $40, I will gladly
buy it.  I will not, however, buy the converted "Superman" for $40.
You said so youself as to why not.....

CATCH 22:  We won't shell out the money on inferior software, but that
is what we will get until we start shelling out money..... And if we shell
out the dough on an inferior product, why should they improve it?
