I now believe that paid updates are a good thing for us. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to pay for every small update. The paid updates need to be REALLY significant. I look back at my Torque license and think of how ridiculous they were for giving away free updates. I think that is one of the reasons Torque never made progress. I really think that they were strapped for cash. Odd how the engine never progressed, despite having an army of programmers. Kudos to Josh. Anyway, that is a story for another day.
I really hope that in the future, current licencees will get a nice discount on the upgrades. I really hope that the next upgrade won't be:
upgradeCost = newPrice - oldPrice (i.e. $50 = $200 - $150)
Not much of a loyal customer thanks there. I hope that we could get at least half price on the price difference. But, more money to Josh will ultimately mean better tech and better upgrades.
