Step 1: Add ads into [insert app of choice here] that are really annoying

Step 2: Make people pay to get rid of them. Bonus points if it’s a subscription

Step 3: People hate your app but it’s the one that’s installed by default so they use it anyway

Step 4: Profit

The fact that this business model earns moneu rather than car bombs annoys me.

It’s not really micro transactions as much as it is a monthly subscription to remove ads.
