Expanding (Expounding?) on your comments, Roger. You know what really bugs me about plugins (IPAS, etc) is that I can count on one hand the number of times that developers EVER update and improve them! Hurrah for MetaRyes v2 at NO CHARGE to v1 owners. At $300-$1000 per, these programs should be looked at as SERIOUS software programs and hense, should be kept up-to-date. Sorry if any developers take offence here, but do you think I would pay $2500 for 3DS if it remained at version 1 for life? I think NOT! >> NEVER. Through talking to all of my contacts, associates, and everyone in the user group, no one I know has ever gotten a client to bite on this idea. So we're expected to buy these things, become burdened with how many different copy protection schemes, have the developer decide it's not worth updating or improving in 6 months. We're just plain out the money. Very few of the IPASs that I've bought so far have turned out to be profitable for me. They were cool to play with, but very few of them ever ended up enriching me or my business. Considering all of this, are these IPAS routines too expensive? Yah, way too expensive. Roger D. <<
