First, it is a total mis-conception that apple takes a "huge cut". If you have done e-commerce, you would know the cost of selling 99 cent product is at least 25 cents, probably close to 40 cents if you don't manage it right.

You can do a Windows Mobile app, sell it on your own website, and the cost will be close to 40 cents.

Wait, to build WM apps, the cost of signing the app is AT LEAST $5/each file, each time. Since you need to sign the .exe and .cab file, that's at least $10 for each release (assuming you don't have .dll to sign).

So, slap a $10/submission and we will see the spam gone.
