Single-payment software destroys incentive for the company to continue iterating and improving on the core user experience/feature set. Agree or no?

I feel the "Pay once and get x years of updates" is a good balance I'm super tired of subscriptions but I understand that SOME apps need to have that model
Interesting thought! How many years would be reasonable in your opinion? Like 2 years or so? I have one app that does that annually, but calls it a "pay once for 12 months of upgrades" instead of an "annual plan"... which is basically what it is 😂
I think the main difference is you don't have to pay for 12 months of upgrades, you can continue to use the app in its current state forever (if you feel like upgrading, pay more)
