Exactly. Non WE users wo use GW Connect get adds, which of course they have
the option to pay a small fee to eliminate.

Personally, I wouldn't mind ads, as they are commonly used in smart phone
apps. If we want something for free, or a lower cost, that would be a
compromise we would have to make.

Lets not lose sight of the fact that a lot of services are free to us and
others, because they are paid for by advertising. They are not one time
costs, they are continuous sources of revenue.
If GW Micro (any company will do, but mentioning GW Micro keeps this on
topic (smile)) just has a one time cost for software I don't see how they
can sustain providing that software or supporting it. Internet and cable
service providers have monthly costs to bring the service to our homes and
businesses. If they just charged us the one time cost to bring us those
services, I suspect that Internet access might cease to exist for those
providers offering the one cost deal. We saw this happen several years back
with gyms offering life-time memberships. None of those are still operating
today.
