App stores can always refuse to sells apps to those abused the refund policy, so I don't think it will destroy publishers.

Although frankly speaking, 7 days is too long for apps, the law is originally made to restrict post sells and other physicals goods sales that buyer have no idea the quality is before they receive the goods, I think its quite reasonable.

Additionally, not all mobile apps are the same; e.g., 7 days is certainly too long for games, but probably just fine for a calendar app.

The Android market already lets you customize your trial duration, though in a second-best manner—you upload both a demo and a regular version of the app. Of course, there are a bunch of problems, like trying to migrate data.

For physical goods, I'm sure it's very reasonable.

But they've applied it to mobile apps, which makes it ridiculous.
