My point is that it is not exploitation, at least not proven as of yet. If they don't keep working, we lose access. How much of their work is required to keep the thing going may be questioned, but doubting its existence is not sensible.

You could happily use a three or four year old version of jaws, if you didn't get online, didn't allow windows to upgrade and didn't use office 365, otherwise, you can either pay or switch to nvda. I'll pay, if NVDA did all I wanted it to do, I could save some money, but as far as I can tell, there are still things I need that it doesn't do so there it is. I'm grateful for jaws, having tried nvda, and tried a mac and left lacking the access I want on both. Nothing is perfect, but of the three, jaws is still the best for what I do. Others who want or need less can probably save themselves a ton of money.

When you divide one feature into bits and pieces and scale it to versions and eat up people's SMas and ask for upgrade to avail the remaining parts of one feature introduced in the past, this makes nothing but a fact clear that this is a sheer robbery. But of course, we are almost unlikely to hear any American blindness advocating foundation to bring this years of version proliferation issue to the court.
My last words to you the Americans, wake up and beware what's going on with your versions and how they're eaten up guys!

Hi, I am almost sure that the voluntary FS lawyers in the list will keep flooding and trolling upon this feed-back, but I cannot help stating that this version is a joke, and FS makes it for years. I really would like to know, what is/are the major change/changes making this version to be called 21?
