As many of you have already heard, Serotek just announced that it would discontinue Software Management Agreements for most of its screen reader products. This means that they will no longer charge for updates to their screen readers for life. Will this force FS to follow suit with JAWS to remain competitive? Quite frankly, I don't see how Serotek can give away their products and still remain financially viable. Mike Calvo talks tough, but is he setting himself up for a big fall? Will FS simply ignore this revolutionary change in the marketing of accessible software?
