Wait, maybe I'm late to the party - purchased Instapaper over a year ago for $4.99 on my iPad - does Marco want to charge me a renewing fee now for my use of his server time? I suppose that's fair, but it is a change of policy and I'm wondering why he can't let early adopters get a free ride (I paid money after all) because we supported him in the beginning before he was popular...



Instapaper offers an optional $1/month subscription. It's a voluntary way to support future development.

The $1/month subscription also enables use of the feature that lets you do full-text search on the articles you saved. It's also needed if you want to use applications that access the Instapaper API like the Paper Mache app on webOS.
