:License Terms/9/en

Isn't it unfair to let me pay for updates?

We don't think so, as you get two years of free updates when purchasing the initial license and this already is a substantial offer. When we are stuck to a commercial model, where we only get revenue from initial license sales, the whole thing collapses when additional sales go down while we have to maintain a large number of licensed systems. I think there will be a point of saturation in the market, when all people where Meteobridge solution does fit are equipped with it. Being there, there would be no revenue to cover client support, new developments, bug fixes, etc. As we have plenty of ideas of further development, it would be a pity to get the project stalled just because not getting a needed amount of new users on board. With the introduction of update licenses we generate revenue from the users who want additional features and support and by that we have a stable revenue base to go on with Meteobridge.
