   I have an app that I just noticed says I can buy it for 0 dollars.   
     buy for $0.00   
      
   What does that even mean?   
      
   In normal operating systems, there's no concept of "purchasing" a   
   zero-dollar app, as that would just be called a free app (as in beer).   
      
   You don't purchase a free app.   
   You just install it.   
      
   But Apple has this concept of purchasing everything, I guess.   
   Even free apps.   
      
   But I've downloaded free apps before on the App Store.   
   And I don't remember it being called a zero-dollar app.   
      
   But this seemingly has a purchase price that I can "buy" it at.   
   But what does that blue 0-dollar button even mean in Apple parlance?
