At least it's not as bad as Paragon charging for basic NTFS reading/writing functionality on Mac OS X.

- Veratyr 11y agoParagon puts in a non-trivial amount of effort to build functionality that people are willing to pay for. I'm not sure how that's bad at all.
- barbs 11y agoThinking about it further, I guess my main beef is with Apple for not including that functionality in the first place, and I don't like the idea of paying money for something that should be free in essence. It's also why I don't like how mIRC was so popular, despite numerous open-source IRC clients being available. And I'd feel pretty uncomfortable paying for text-editors like Sublime Text or TextMate. But that's just me :).
