I heard this term recently. What are subscription applications(for a mobile platform). Does this term fall under standard usage? Are there any examples of such a mobile application?
Thanks.

A:
In subscription application you pay for right to use software for some period of time. E.g. application could cost for example $5 per month and as long as you keep paying, you can use the application.
I think that this is rather common term. I don't know about mobile apps but one example subscription based web app would be Basecamp. Another example would be StackExchange.

Thus, World of Warcraft would be a subscription application. (Although not a mobile one. Unless they have an app for that too.)
