You are aware that all the people responding to your blog are people whose livelihood and income depend upon people paying for software, right? 🙂 (It’s safe to assume that is a programmer or is involved in the tech field somehow because he works at Apple, right?)

And for the record, I’m in the “let em charge for it, some one else is gonna come out with a free one anyways” camp too. My only beef with it would be if the writer would not sell to specific guilds or people. As long as anyone can pay for it to get it, it’s okay by me. He just better make sure that he can keep up with new features that other competitors like CTRaid don’t have, otherwise he won’t be getting any more money.
