A free game will never make 200k$ in a year, so I don't really see any issue here (?). Unless you are talking about free game with in-game purchase. Then yeah, someone who would download the game without doing any purchase after the threshold is met would be a net loss for the devs.

Yeah, the commenter above you is saying 200k installs, and you're saying $200k money.

I understood that, but you need to reach both thresholds (200k downloads AND 200k $) to have to pay fees per install, so the number of install doesn't matter for a free game.
