I have been reviewing Boonex blog posts trying to parse the language about licensing with the new version. As with the release date, we have very little useful information. I found this in this language in the "it's close" post they made three months ago:
-
"Dolphin 7 Free will have less ads/links, and once you buy a license to remove them - no need to re-install. We're also developing a more flexible pricing structure for the package, but rest assured that it's going to be more affordable than now."
-
In trying to intrepret what this means, I became concerned about the "more flexible pricing structure" comment. What does this mean? It is pretty flexible now. Specifically I am concerned that there will be some kind "per user" pricing structure. The thing that makes Dolphin really special in my opinion is their free, unlimited license- and changing this would be a disaster- for Boonex but especially for us- we would no longer "own" our applications. Maybe I am being paranoid but could someone from Boonex come on and let us know that they aren't planning anything too "clever" with the new licensing.
