it is buyable for a very fair price indeed in my opinion,
and then I would Guess and find fair that One would be free from the ads or..?
Not at this point for a price imo. Don't think it's a good policy to ask people to pay their way out of ads personally. I like the project, so I have stuck with it and as much as because the people behind it seem genuine. Not ready to pay for what they have at this point.
I wish Qihoo would try something different and work with their add-ons for earning money. I cringed every time they gave one away, honestly. But I do think too the company where it's located in the world would do well to have a solid free standard baseline program no matter what they choose down the road for income. Let's face it, they're going to serve mostly Asia into India the south pacific maybe into the middle east. They aren't generally money crazy in those places. Anyway, the money is going to be in endpoint software, and Qihoo can probably do very well in those areas if they can make the right friends with their free...
