Many applications have 5 or less total users. My 14 yr old son says he doesn't visit FB much anymore because of all initial fun has worn off the viral chump/quiz/are you? apps and now he's annoyed the silliness... now if a 14 yr old says this, what does this portend for users older than 14? FB needs to at least force dev's to put up some $250 to not fill the directory with non-used nonsense. Or more to the point... why would they even approve the listing of these things in the first place?! I agree. Many applications have 5 or less total users.

Phil, you're wrong.... if you spend 2 weeks or more to develop an app, you can pay $200 to have it published. But of course, if you spend only 5 minutes to build it, then you don't pay...

Having it free is the way to go. The Facebook economy isn't stable to justify a monetary investment in addition to time spent.
