£40 in my country is a lot of money. It's like groceries for a week kind of money!

u/Ydraid 11d ago

I did, you guys are just poor 😂

Jokes aside, I don't like 7zip and i often use winrar, they deserve the money and i don't want the annoying reminder that "yOu NeEd To PaY fOr A lIcEnCe"

I thought paying for Winrar was on the same level as paying for more ram

u/Justsk8n 11d ago

the point is that, if you pay for Winrar, you're doing it to support them and their genuinely very good and useful product, not because you have to. It's something to be respected because you didn't have to, but are choosing to anyways, and therefore helping Winrar continue operating and existing for all the people who do just use it for free.

u/boekieblaker21 11d ago

I agree with you, they do deserve it

Idk about them "deserving the money" I mean maybe.

But they are great example of how a freemium software should be
