Great App -- Too price - 2005/04/15 13:50 Hello,

Great App! Wow, it's neat.

I published to my .Mac account, but I don't seem to have any control of it. I mean, I don't know where 'it' went and how to delete 'it'. What is 'it'? When I log into .Mac, I don't see my Comic Page listed... bummer!

Price is way too much! I would buy it for $20. Will you offer it to me for $20? I would gladly pay $20. But $40? That's getting close to the price of iLife. I just don't have $40 around. Wow! That's expensive.

Great piece of software!

Re:Great App -- Too price - 2005/04/15 13:59 Hi,

Ahh - yes not documented anywhere is it?

It's in your Sites folder and called comiclife. If you want to get rid of it just blow away the comiclife folder.

You can delete a comic from your .Mac account by selecting the File->Manage .Mac Comics menu item.

Thanks for the feedback on pricing.

Best,

Robert.

Re:Great App -- Too price - 2005/04/16 03:00 Of course, everyone thinks cheaper is better but I say Comic Life is priced fairly and gives excellent value for money.

I agree with Alistair - 2005/04/16 03:34 There are many things that this product can do and it does it elegantly with a clear and simple interface. I would like to see more options in printing document sizes but the more I use it, the more I like it. I will be purchasing it shortly.

We really should stop talking about pricing and concentrate on features, existing problems and future options that we want added.

Re:Great App -- Too pricey - 2005/04/16 04:42 $20 or I'm walking. I have a short attention span these days. Great product, overpriced, interested in purchasing it. But if the price is $40, I'm walking. I have many tools in my toolbox. This could be a good one. But, $40 is way too high for a tool like this. If you want my purchase, agree to my price of $20 for personal (non-business) use. If I dropped $50 for every interesting app I've seen, I would only be able to afford a Dell. If you don't want my purchase, I'm gone. Simple as that. Everthing is negotiable.

Let me give you an example. A certain game was recently released. The price was $40. I thought the product was overpriced. I waited. I waited and waited some more. Found the same product 2 months after release for $20. Bought it, kids are happy. Same game, half price. Simple as that.

I am a heavy iLife 04 user. Fact is, I haven't upgraded to iLife 05. Why? Cost is higher than perceived value. iLife 04 is rock solid and I am very productive. What real value to get with iLife 05 over iLife 04? What is new in iLife 05? Product is way too expensive at ~$75 or whatever.

Just flew to Vegas. Got a car rental via Priceline for $17 bucks a day. Got a hotel via Priceline for $50 bucks a night. Normal booking charge was $150 bucks. I thought the cost/value ratio was out of balance so I offered less. The hotel and car rental company accepted my offer. Everything is negotiable.
