This would cut off pretty much all free hobbyist-built apps that have no intent to monetize, but actively develop and update. The $100/year Developer Center subscription is bad enough! If I’m releasing once a month, and making zero dollars, $1,300 a year is excessive—I just wouldn’t develop the app in the first place.
This. I literally build apps that are 'utilities' for me and my family+friends. Paying 100 a year for the SDK is a cost of that but bearable. Now having to charge my family+friends just to release updates seems way too excessive!
