What if I don't want to update an app???

Anyone know if there is any way to delete an update of an app that I don't want to do? For example, I have an update now that lists "support for Australia". That's great but I'm in the US so I really don't need it and don't want the extra space taken. Any way I can forgo an update so it's not in my update list?

Just don't update it.

Hey, did you ever figure out how to "un-update" an app? Sometimes an update makes an app worse. For example, Shazam version 1.8.7 is the last fully unlimited, free version. But a few weeks ago, they made everyone update to version 1.8.8, and it's limited to just 5 tags per month. They are forcing everyone to buy the new unlimited version for $5.00 and it's no different from the previous version. I was lucky not to update it, but I want to remove that app from any future updates and dismiss the update notification on my iPhone's "app store" icon. Please let me know if you were successful. Thanks
