I agree this is obvious. I guess I must just think about these things
differently. I had already done donations to erland for his good work
prior to this pricing in an amount in excess of what he now charges for
a lifetime license. And I primarly only use SQL Playlist and Dynamic
Playlists.  But I do the same with mp3tag and other "free" programs.

There is no free lunch. The explicit cost is paying someone for the
product. The implicit cost is losing future devlopment on useful
plugins.  Whether the price is a good price or not, I don't know. But a
lifetime license for all his plugins for the cost of 3 to 6 CDs, seems
like a bargain to me.
