What does the iPhone developer program give me over and above simple registration as an iPhone developer?

Question

Simply put; what does my $99 get me, that I can\'t already get for free?

OK, OK, sounds like a dumb question, but the Apple site is not clear to me.

My hunch is

Answer 1

After paying the $99 the main benefits are shown below:

• Install your developed apps on your device without Jailbreaking
• Submit and distribute paid and free apps to the Apple App Store
• Access to coupon codes to distribute your paid app to reviewers (neat feature)
• Distribute an internal app using ad-hoc distribution for up to 100 devices
• Free additional marketing if your application is popular (generally not available to everyone)

Those are the main benefits, I don't think I have forgotten any of the key benefits.
