Can't really fault the people making these tools, if they are selling what they make, raise the price, if they keep selling, raise it again. Not sure about worldwide, but it is certainly the American way to success and riches. I mean who goes into business to be a nice guy? At least the only peeps who think they should be "nice guys" are those who already think everything they want should be free. No not you, just free for Meeeeeeee. Not a realistic lot are they? :-)
