Secret and Purchased basically do the same thing- reward more credits with more files. That's good.
Problem is, they do it in two conflicting ways (amass credits vs spend credits)
It's frequently confusing to beginners when they purchase a song then suddenly one of their favorite Secret files disappears.
Proposed solution: fold the Secret genre into Purchased.
Why not the other way around?
First of all, FFR needs more credit sinks, this is a perfect way.
Second of all, it will create more cheap Purchased files. People like unlocking things; creating lots of 50 and 100 price Purchased files gives people lots of goodies to grab as they improve.
Finally, it gives people more choice to unlock things in the order they want. Choice is good.
How do we price these charts? Simple, simply take the difference in credits it would take to unlock them as a Secret chart, and make that their Purchased price.
Besides the two exceptions, this will make no difference in how many songs people have- if they have the credits for the songs in Secret, they will have enough credits to buy them all in the new system as well.
