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.

This is just too confusing. How about they have it like it was before with it just being free and apps with in-app purchases having the + on the top right.

-Swift I don't see why they needed to change this.
The only thing that I could think of is how they wanted to be different from Google, which is stated above.
Neither do I its pointless.

I was confused when this change occured. I thought my appstore had switched to another country or something.
Pointless change, inferior aesthetic.

the "GET" in the appstore looks really bad. "Free" was so much better. this change was not necessary at all.
