That's kind of an insult to smaller devs, who by and large offer excellent service and typically provide multiple free content updates. I paid $2.99 for Plants Vs Zombies and it has been updated more times than I can count.
- skeletonjelly 14y agoIt's not so much an insult as it is a testament to the current state of customer service between indie devs and a megacorp like Adobe. I don't like the comparison though, if a $2 product doesn't get fixed, people won't buy it en masse (or recommend it), Adobe has an insane market position. People will buy their product. Watch Adobe not go out of business as people purchase CS6. Having said that I'm not sure how people can vote with their wallets when Adobe pull shit like this (security patch via purchased update).
- chii 14y ago"I'm not sure how people can vote with their wallets when Adobe pull shit like this" please name another suite of software that can compete with adobe's creative suite. They have a defacto monopoly on professional publishing software. This is why.
- skeletonjelly 14y agoTotally agree. That was the point I was trying to make.
