&gt;  I was a bit put off that statement though since I expect bug fixes as part of my original purchase price.<p>You should expect that. But when it comes time to purchase the upgrade, would you do it ONLY for future bugfixes? Or for new features?<p>Most people would upgrade only if there were new features, because otherwise they&#x27;ll just use their older version with whatever bugs it has that might not even effect them. JetBrains is a business after all...
