So I think either prices stay a little higher with demos.. OR .. We stop demos on the platform and sell apps for 99c and sell far more as people have to pay just to try the application..

I agree completely with keeping demos. I would much rather try 100 applications and buy the ten that I want then buy 20 applications and only use 2. If you do not allow demos, so people have to buy your product at 99 cents in order to try it - what incentive is there to make it better? people are buying it. Yes in order to get good reviews they will make a better product but how much money can someone make till the reviews catch up to them.
