We are certainly not trying to make our entire living off of selling upgrades for DirOpus, but it is part of our income, of course. Why shouldn't we make money from upgrades? We have been working on this one for 9 months, and an incredible amount of effort and attention has gone into its production. It is worth every penny of the new $99 price tag, and certainly the $40 upgrade fee. Making money from software sales, both new and upgrade sales, is how we stay in business. I don't understand how calling it something new and selling it as new would in any way benefit registered users of the product. They would simply have to buy it over again as new. Even the very lowest-of-the-low mail order prices for Opus 4.0 will be more than our upgrade fee. Just because you might not have paid $40 for the original purchase does not mean that the new version is not worth everything we are asking for it. I really hope you give it a chance. We have a money-back guarantee, as always. – via Whap!
