I think software prices should come down for example i love a program called photomatix for photography it only does one simple thing and they want 90 € for it wtf ? that 3 days wages for me....
now they give you two main ways of doing it in the program and give you one free and the more propriety method you have to have a license for so like 10 people buy a license just for one function and another 100 are still using a usable function of the program for free thats not right I'm not paying 90 € so that 90 % of people get a usable program free and i have to pay for just that little bit more functionality... thats not being fair they should charge 20-30 € and give you a 30 dsy trial, the program is also slightly buggy, hell I could get the whole damn os for 90 € (win XP)
