Hi Tim,

Yeah, a revenue split model would work much better but unfortunately Marco hasn't chosen an 'official' Android client just yet (and doesn't seem disposed to) and has mandated the subscription model for all third-party apps. It's understandable, given his wariness of Android (which is seemingly somewhat justified.) I am going to make a concerted effort to make the app appeal to users who don't know about Instapaper or the model, though. I've been concentrating on providing the best possible app to those who already understood both of these to the detriment of new users who don't know the service at all, the logic being that if you know what Instapaper is, it's because you're already aware of the excellent iOS apps.
