Am I the only one who sees a linguistic significance between "buy in the app store" and "download in the app store?" I've always felt as though the latter implied that the product was free. The act of downloading doesn't necessitate relinquishing money, so I tend to think that "purchasing" is a more appropriate verb when linking to paid apps.

"Downloading" is a fairly specific verb that generally doesn't involve money, which is why it feels so jarring when I see it used in relation to making a purchase.

Does anyone else feel as though "purchase" would be a more appropriate verb for their copy?
