Re: Pricing questions & reflections

I received the update letter from World Book today. The price listed on
my letter was $49, or if you chose to skip the upgrade, to pay $49 x the
number of years.   I consider this to be an extremely fair price, since
I have seen other products demanding that we either lease the annual
upgrade or pay the full purchase price when we upgraded in the future.
Even at $99, that is one of the cheaper upgrades available.
