[QUOTE="AriDfoix, post: 762995, member: 74707"] Same model is applied with PayTV, is software as a service model; I am not against the practice of lifetime license, but should be regulated, is hard keep the same product unchanged for 100 years, and usually what looks like a big bargain at the begin, result in a big flop later. I count the lifetime license products that worth to be buyed on half hand, many of the devs that proposed the lifetime have to change opinion like Sandboxie, because there is another side effect, people bulk buy lifetime licenses, then resell at higher price on ebay after... :( Correct me if I am wrong.
