while this looks to be a worthwhile app, as always, we'd love it if developers who use the App Store would take a cue from other programmers, like Russell over at SweetP Productions (Cookie), and provide a demo which can be downloaded at the developers site, for trial, prior to purchase.
Mac developers have been doing this with their wares for some fifteen plus years, with great success I might add.
I know you guys are feeling the pinch in sales, because I have many developers confide this to me.
Take the hint: provide a test drive, before asking us to buy the car.
It's not the $1 here or the $4.99 there:
It's all of them added up over time that keeps many of us from availing ourselves of your programs, especially when we can't try them out first.

That said, not being able to try out a new product before paying for it is a decided disincentive - particularly for those of us accustomed to using shareware. Apple has rewritten the playbook - and not every play in the new book is a winner. This no doubt explains, at least in part, why many developers, including Apple themselves, have cut prices for NAS versions of their products. It's an obvious attempt to compensate for the absence of trial versions. It no doubt works better in some cases than in others.
It's never been easy to implement trial versions and it's always been a bit hit and miss, with a variety of systems in play, some more user friendly than others. Now the issue is even more complex and challenging. Many developers, for whom profit margins are already marginal, will naturally take the easy way out, making their offerings Mac App Store only. I don't like it either, but I understand why they do it.

I agree that offering both a trial app and a full-featured app is more work than simply offering a single app. Developing apps is hard work, no doubt about it. The fact remains that a developer who is confident in his work will want as many people to try it as possible.
As for paying 10-20 bucks per app just to try shareware, that's fine if you're rich. Most people don't have that sort of money to blow.

So I downloaded every WAV converter I could find and gave each one the task of converting the file. Given GEOPROF's authoritative review, I almost didn't bother with SoundConverter, and I did try all of his suggested alternatives.
Of all the apps I tried, SoundConverter was the easiest one to configure and use -- once I figured out that signed=PCM. Just drop the file on the window and it instantly spits out the cleanest sounding and SMALLEST file of any of the apps I tested.
I can't speak to high-end recordings of music and such, but for my needs SoundConverter was the only tool that got the job done well.

And when I choose to 'Check for updates...', it says that this release is from 20060917 and that there is a new version released on 20061017... I just downloaded that version and installed it.
This problem have been existent for a long while now, and It's not the first time that I report about it.

"Application release 20060627 is up to date."
and in the About menu, it says:
"RELEASE 2006 06 27"
Shouldn't it say 2006 07 07? Is it updated or is it not?
