I think it's reasonable. I imagine this came about because so many people opted for the Small Biz version so RunRev needed to introduce a major difference between the versions. You could always use an Express or Eval version for testing and bug fixing. > > What is a feature update, by the way? > I think it's a minor update. 2.0 -> 2.1. The 2.0.1 -> 2.0.2 updates would be bug fixes and the 2.0 -> 3.0 updates would be major file structure changes. I think this is a big plus for the Studio Version compared to the Small Biz version. > I was sort of assuming that the 30-day trial period edition was similar > to what we currently have: Don't assume anything. We don't know if RunRev was maintaining the Free Version just to compete with MC or not. With such a cheep version being introduced what value is it to RunRev to maintain the Free Version? If I were RunRev I'd dump it because it will stop people buying the Express version. Long term Free Version users are a drain on RunRev's resources and the cost of that drain ends up in the hands of users that pay.
