Price kinda high for an addon..
He guys
First let me start off buy saying this is a wounderfull product i love it.
But i must say the price is kind of on the high side for an addon.
This software is still an addon it depends on winamp. I cant see paying money on a software thats dependent on another. ie
winamp pro $20 + $70 for your pro version.
Yes i see you have made different packages so ppl with less money can be included a bit.
I have money and its not about the price but the dependency on other software. I.E you buy a lifetime license and what happens if winamp goes under
(not like it will lol)
Thank you for the great product.
Thank you for listening and i hope you don't take this the wrong way..
I want to see ejukebox last

Thank you for your thoughts. eJukebox could always be updated to not require winamp for mp3 playback. However, the reason winamp is used is because of
its excellent audio quality, low resource usage, plugin support, file support, and shoutcast internet radio broadcasting and playback. So why rebuild
the wheel when you will always be able to download/use winamp for free (because Nullsoft and AOL are huge) even if it does go under. The original
idea behind eJukebox was to put a new face on winamp's music listing and selection by creating an interactive full screen graphical music catalog
that adds kiosk like functionality on top of winamp's excellent audio playback quality. I feel that eJukebox has evolved to become much more than an
'addon'... winamp should be seen as the free 'addon' required for eJukebox.
The reason eJukebox costs as much as it does is because of the 4 years of hard work put in so far and the large amount of time and money that will go
toward improving it. An Important thing to consider is that most commercial software charges for each major version upgrade. With the eJukebox
Lifetime License you will get free upgrades for life and the ability to actually shape eJukebox's future via forum participation.
