I wonder what happens when he sells for $0. An infinite number of buyers?

You're joking obviously, but I wonder if this has ever been successfully applied in some form or other.
Sony and other computer manufacturers will charge you more to deliver the computer _without_ the "bonus" software they usually include. (Yes, it's probably a matter of the bonus/bloatware/crapware makers paying the manufacturer to include it vs. customers paying more to not. Flip side is a lot of that stuff _is_ useful, but many users just don't want it there to start with.)
I've just realized I saw something in my line of work too. One of our customers is planning to sell a premium version of their product that has their logo removed.
This seems to disagree with what I've heard of Valve and Steam sales. That the bigger the discount, the more (total) revenue is made, almost across the board. $50 game -> 50% off, 100 sales $50 game -> 75% off, 500 sales etc

So charge more for removing even more features. Call it Zen instead of Pro.

I agree with some of the posters who suggest splitting into 2 levels of the app at different price points. (Usually, it's better to have 3 levels, but it seems in the App Store, most companies go with 2 to make it easier on customers. I'd love to find some data with evidence that one way or another is better for the App Store.)
This is why in-app purchases are so effective. Charging everyone the same price all the time doesn't make sense with digital goods
