I've already expressed my dislike of the pricing structure.  But  
expressing it here on the mailing list does nothing but cause  
unwanted and unneeded dissension among everyone on the list and in  
the end, won't change Runtime's pricing structure anyway.

The pricing structure was I'm sure intended to create a constant  
financial source from businesses which are typically used to paying  
through the nose for software and repeated high priced updates and  
upgrades.  It wasn't really setup with the home or hobby developer in  
mind.

Basically, if you don't like the price structure for Rev, ya might  
want to consider an less expensive alternative which might fulfill  
your needs and expectations.

Best regards,
