Commercial products == you get what you pay for.
Free products == you get what you download.
You have to pay microsoft when you buy windows os.
You have to pay software companies when you buy software.
It's a continous chain event.
Now I know that people crack software and release it for the public to download for free and that's the software vendor's fault. I remember one application which took over a year to crack but i can't remember what it was.
As for my product it is encoded with Ioncube with a backup license system.
IonCube has never and in my opinion won't be cracked for a long long time.
Heck, the white house uses it.
As far as I see things in difference between free and commercial, is support, updates, and size. Yes size is a huge difference, my addon filesize is larger than vbulletin and vbadvanced put togeather, it's huge.
This was to a post from page 9 or 10 can't remember but oh well.
Oh and vBSEO, very well put, my thoughts exactly.
FASherman also very well put.
I can see .org growing beyond what their eyes can see, and that's not an attack or anything personal, but can't you see the potential?
