I'm a Pocket user since it was called Read it Later and even bought the then-paid Android app as a way to support the owner. I was excited to see a way to help the developer again, specially as I learned he is fully dedicated to it since the name change.
I clicked in the link as soon as I read it. But I found it too expensive.
Ok, it is half of Evernote's price. But Evernote works as a more generic trunk, storing other kind of data, has plugins and even compatible hardware. And has all the functionality of Pocket, with Clearly, even in the free version.
And at least for my use, I don't need any of the extra functions at Pocket. Even though I would be happy to support the service, I would prefer a less steep first step.
Completely agree. AND Evernote is actually THE SAME price. Instapaper's premium tier seems to do nearly the same thing for 12 bucks a year. Where is the value proposition here?
