That said, if some musician absolutely needs his or her own app, that price really can't be beat. Even doing it yourself, assuming you want to learn Objective-C, is going to cost $99 for the license alone.

Like the marketplace is going to get super, super flooded. I can't see it being a big money-maker for me and I don't really want to commit to an app that may be half-baked. But who knows. If I were touring right now I'd probably spring for it.
