Apple changes 'free' button to 'get'
There is an odd inconsistency to the change. First-party Apple apps appear to still be "free," while all other free apps, whether they have in-app purchases or not are "get." Under the "get" button there is a notation if there are in-app purchases.

I guess it's better if you think of all the freemium apps so ya I guess this is a good change.

I actually like this change tbh, clears things up with apps actually being completely free.

Exactly they just do it to make money
How does Apple changing "Free" to "Get" mean they are doing this for money?
Now that I am thinking about this, its a great idea, because apps should only be considered free if they are 100 precent free and no in-app purchases.
That's exactly what I was thinking. If they didn't do it because of that, than I guess it's rather pointless.
