Seems that all the good programs for FS2002 that we knew as freeware are all going to be payware now. S-Combo, one of the best addons for 2002 was freeware, and it's now a

That economy thing is BS. Just don't buy them and perhaps they will be forced to release them again as freeware. Look at Bill Lyons and his Classics.

well, learn the skills to become a programmer, maybe then you will understand that these guys have put ALOT of time together, just to make OUR experience better, so why not give them something back?
I have the new FSUIPC. Many of my fellow Simmers has the payware version, so it's not a failure. Some aircraft developers have even bought licences for the program so I guess he is doing fine ATM, which he deserves.
Peter Dowson has done SO MUCH for the online-flying community that it's just right to pay the man. Unlike many con-artists out there, his stuff actually works and is genuine quality.
If he charged $5 instead of the $25, wouldn't he make more money simply because a lot more people would buy it?
These people ARE in it for the money. I read somewhere that the RCS b-25 or was is it their DC3 made almost $100,000, and it wasn't even that popular from what I was aware of. They would still make a lot of money, and probably even more if they charged considerably less.
I think the only payware utility worth the money is FSnavigator. Active Camera is a good program but I think it should be freeware. FSUIPC should be freeware as well.
Do what orenda635 said, don't buy it and they will be forced to release it for free.

Is there a place to get a description of all these addons? Or can someone give a brief description of what they are and why they are or aren't worth paying for? As a new pilot, I often have trouble understaning what you old timers are talking about with all the acronyms. I'm sure I 'm not the only one.

I knew I liked you Andrew. lol
This is a concept known as "volume sales", and its one that many sellers, both entrepreneurs and corporations, seem to have forgotten. No one realizes anymore that you'll make far more money this way.
