Certainly if an upgrade provides something you need or want, no reason not to buy it. But remember that software companies produce upgrades because their business model requires you to buy their products over and over again in order to keep them in business--and not because they are trying to help you by introducing new features. The alternatives for software companies are building new software products instead of bloating the old ones and charging subscription fees to use software instead of just allowing customers to pay for it one time; the former is very expensive and risky compared to rehashing existing products, and the latter is strongly resisted by most customers (except corporate customers who have already become used to this sort of thing on mainframe systems). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
