Latest reviews of The Encyclopædia Britannica app for iPhone and iPad

this is my best app!!
With ultimate guitar,this is my best app
hidden costs
and again, hidden monthly cost instead of just paying once....
Wrong pricing policy
I bought my dictionary app for 25 €. But I would not have bought it if it were 2 Euros per month. It is more convenient and makes you feel psychologically better to pay once and becoming the owner than paying in rates and staying as subscriber . An annual rate of 9 Euro would also look much better. But 20 Euro is too expensive
Greed Is A Mortal Sin.
Once a good encyclopaedia is perishing due to the lack of subscribers.
