I don't mind paying for upgrades, but I do have a problem paying for bug fixes. There IS a difference, and I feel bugs should be fixed ASAP once spotted and fixes distributed free. Upgrades and enhancements should definitely be charged for, and I think any reasonable purchaser should/would agree with the comments by Mr. Stokkeland concerning same. That's my 2 cents worth.
