So this little company called mark/space likes to kick on my pet peeve: paying for a point release of an update of their product. I paid for 4.0 version of their missing sync for palm (mainly for a way to make the mac send web pages to the palm) and they want money for 5.0. Sure, i get a 15 buck discount, whoopee. I can’t STAND companies that force me to buy their products a second time for a release that doesn’t have much improvement to begin with. its insane. You’ve gotten my money, give me updates for life. It’s just…..grrrr. I don’t want to pay for an app i’ve already bought. It’s not worth it, i already have it. Just give me the fricken app.
When i see a company do that, i just head straight for my favorite hacker site and download and crack the latest version. You moochers, you think we’re made of money? bite me. Long live
