A. One of the major reasons I don’t charge for JBidwatcher is that, unlike a spreadsheet which is entirely self-contained, it is ALWAYS possible for JBidwatcher to be broken arbitrarily (and maybe even permanently!) by matters entirely out of my and my users control. I’d feel REALLY bad if I took someone’s money as a sale, and eBay went to captcha’s for every login, for instance (to name a serious issue that many of my users are facing). I describe money people send me right now as donations, because if they send me anything at all, I want it to be on account of the help it has brought them in the past, and purely because they want to show their appreciation, not necessarily what it will bring them in the future. As they say in the financial industry, unfortunately:Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
