I am, and I agree, and I'm not saying I should be handed anything for free. I'm investigating if there is a "free-to-download" app with the functionality I'm looking for somewhere. These apps are not really free, you pay by exposing yourself to advertisers. This is maybe the predominant app model on Android today and is often the only way an independent developer can make a few quid of their product on Google Play. I dislike ads with a passion but whenever possible I always try to support small time developers instead of big companies. I've been told that some apps are hard to find though because of how the search system works.
