What if you live in a country whre prices are low and wages, too? 79 EUR in sweden is on average earned with much lesser hours of work than 79 EUR with average work in other countries. E.g. what if you are unemployed in Greece? The advice (not by you) "get a 2nd job" is a bit snobish I'd say. The thing is: It's more or less only for ppl in rich countries and with a job. No prob with that and IMHO no urgend need to change that (the world is not fair). But at least one should stay honest. For most ppl (worldwide) it is expensive. As you rightly said: it's a market offer. Get it or leave it. I took the offer three times alredy.
I find this remark pretty odd. It's not a human right to be able to spend money on a hobby. I would not tell a poor person in Greece to suck it up, get a second job and get that MorphOS licence. I would tell him/her to get Linux.
I don't see the oddity in my comment. I said it's more or less for ppl of the rich countries and that the world is not fair. Actually I am pretty happy to be on the lucky side. But I understand if others complain about the price, the own POV may differ from others POV.
Of course I don't understand if ppl complain about the price while bathing in a tub filled with Veuve Clicquot (or something like that)....
And as said: I took the offer three times already - I am not complaining for myself.

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
