Great. That message kinda stands for "you're dumb, do you wanna become dumber?" Nice improvement, indeed.

I think it has to do with people are just smart enough to not want to double-pay for something they bought. I'd be surprised if this doesn't go to court one day.

So let me get this straight? If you already have the app but it wasn't purchased through the Mac App store you have to buy the app again in order to continue using it?

Serves all the Apple fan boy chumps right. That's what happens when you support this evil company. Go ahead, keep giving Apple your money....I for one will not. I've never purchased an Apple product in the past and I never will. The ironic thing is Apple users like to think they're smarter than others...not. If you were smarter, you'd see right through Apples BullS**T
I swear, Steve Jobs could take a dump in the backyard, put it on a plate, stamp it with a half bitten Apple and these brainwashed morons would think it's the second coming of Christ!
