Of course paying $2 for a good piece of software is not a big deal, and I am not a FLOSS nut. But I think this move is uniquely unethical. People used Growl as a simply, de-facto standard extension to the OS, a simple notification service. Developers use it for its ubiquity, and its ubiquity came from developers using it. To suddenly begin charging seems dishonest. The move will also will ultimately degrade its ubiquity, and lose its value. As a developer, I obviously will not be supporting Growl notifications anymore, and look forward to the FLOSS alternative that inevitably supersedes it.
