Apple has just pushed through a great update to its developer app sale agreement, giving devs the ability to offer their apps at a 50% discount to educational institutions.

The idea is to allow educational institutions to preload the same apps across numerous iOS devices to be distributed to students and faculty, while giving developers an incentive to offer their apps at a discount.

The half-off discount only applies in bulk downloads of twenty or more apps purchased at once. If you’re a developer, it’s easy enough to sign up: just agree to the new paperwork and tick the box next to “Discount for Educational Institutions.”
