It won't be painless, but you could sell registration keys through your website and have the user enter them in the app.

Either way I'm really looking forward to this, please keep us posted! If you could partner with a high-quality recipe website, this could be a killer app (there are thousands of recipe websites but most of them just have 1-paragraph braindumps, very hard to follow. It's going to be a major challenge to find a way to let users input the 'steps' of a recipe, including which tasks are parallel etc. There certainly won't be a way to do this automatically in software, each recipe will have to be 'converted' manually).

I'm willing to contribute recipe instructions, even if it means I have to hand-edit xml or yaml or whatever :)



Or they could do microtransactions in the app to sell more content as well. Then Apple takes care of the billing.
