There are two options while paying:
- For a single plugin/applet
- For all my plugins/applets
You can also select if you want a time limited or life time license
with the amount:
- Minimum of $5 will give you a time restricted one year license
- Minimum of $20 for a single plugin/applet will give you a life time
license
- Minimum of $50 for all my plugins/applets will give you a life time
license of all of them.
The reason for offering yearly fees is that some users might not know
if they are going to use their Squeezebox more than one year in the
future and this way they can get a cheaper license.
I decided to not set any exact prices and instead just specify minimum
prices and let each user pay what they think it's worth, the main
reason for this is that some users think the plugins/applets are worth
more and some can't afford or doesn't want to pay much. By letting each
user decide the amount they think the plugin/applet is worth, my hope is
that the average payment will still be reasonable. If I start to get a
lot of user paying the minimum amounts I'll probably introduced strict
pricing instead but at the moment I'm pretty happy with the amounts the
average user has payed.
I don't have any plans to lower the above minimum amounts, they might
be increased in the future if the average payment starts to get too
close to the minimum amounts but so far this doesn't seem to be the
case.
To your specific question, if you want to pay as little as possible for
the four plugins you mention, the minimum amount for a life time license
covering all of them plus all my other current plugins/applets would be
$50.
If anyone didn't understand the pricing options before paying and would
like to change which plugins/applets they are licensed to, just send me
an e-mail and tell me what you want to be changed and I'll adjust it.
