Hello, I totally agree with what Mike said in this post. I too would also like 
to see people discuss features and not write such poor reviews in the App Store 
simply because of the price. I love the app, and I love what Mike and Charles 
have done to make it worthwhile to get. I don't mind paying a little bit of a 
price for accessibility.
