Mac App Store promo codes are now available worldwide

Back in December, MacStories reported that Apple wasn't making promo codes (simple codes used to give away copies of an app) available in the Mac App Store. But it looks like Apple has reconsidered, as MacStories is reporting a change, allowing Mac App Store promo codes in any Mac App Store worldwide (it took a while for iOS App Store codes to go international). As before, developers are limited to 50 codes per version of an app.

Unfortunately Apple has again removed the ability to create promo codes for iPhone/iPad Apps which are rated 17+ now. I'm not sure if the same restriction is true for the Mac AppStore, but it is likely.

Only 50 codes per version? It should be at the discretion of the developer as to how many codes they want to give away. That way, developers could give their users the option of downloading the app they already bought through the App Store.

Yeah, but then Apple has to host all that bandwidth.
