It seems that you no longer need to have paid anything to use v3. http://www.sublimetext.com/3 http://www.sublimetext.com/3 I never downloaded or paid anything for v2, but I did download v3 (the official build, from the official site) to give it a try. I didn't end up sticking to it, but I was definitely able to run it without buying a license, albeit with occasional popups.
