Although your method is easier to implement it's incomplete imho.

There is only one thing I'm missing: the third alternative using InAppPurchase! 1. the self contained model unlocks existing features/data 2. the downloadable content model uses additional server-side logic and application for verifying the transfer 3. the third alternative with the most usefulness would be: -- InAppPurcase like the self contained model, and -- the iPhone App downloads additional content symply from an FTP-server and uses this in the future (without serverside logic!) Why did you not described this third alternative of using InAppPurchase? Your presentation on

There is only one thing I’m missing:
the third alternative using InAppPurchase!
1. the self contained model unlocks existing features/data
2. the downloadable content model uses additional server-side logic and application
for verifying the transfer
3. the third alternative with the most usefulness would be:
— InAppPurcase like the self contained model, and
— the iPhone App downloads additional content
symply from an FTP-server and uses this in the future
(without serverside logic!)

Why did you not described this third alternative of using InAppPurchase?
