If someone tries to sell something that has a banner ad in it, they will know its a free version. No one expects banner ads in something they pay for. You are just trying to get people to advertise the stuff for you. I don't see that it can be sold, without repercussions, because of the ads.
I understand your complaint, but let me explain why it is so.
■First of all the software is already selling at half price than it would normally do. All these softwares are sold for 15-100$ while mine is hardly 4$. The martingale tester is worth atleast 50$ , yet I sell it for about 10$.
■Secondly, your claim is invalid: What about steam? And other popular games. Pay -per -download + they are full of ads. My softwares contains only 1 small banner, than can be hidden so I don't think it's that much of a burden. Also it has no other ads like popup or annoying ads, only 1 small banner that can be hidden, thats all.
■Thirdly, my software gives automatic commercial rights to everyone who purchased it. Try that with other softwares, i don't think you will find anybody else so generous that will let you sell their software without paying them royalty. My royalty is the banner ad itself, so i`m very generous. Otherwise a commercial license would cost around 100-500$,I require none of that.
So let's recap: only 5-10$ for a very useful software +
free commercial rights, I think it's worth it. And i`m sure others view it fair aswell, if you still think its unfair, then suggest me a better price. I`m up for negotiation, but you must provide good arguments for it.
Anyway thanks for feedback, i appreciate all feedback, negative or positive
