Hi,
first of all I would like to comment on Franks approach concerning hobby/commercial use. I thought it is an extremely interesting approach, especially because this way he can offer a very interesting rate.
I understand that this is probably not the best approach for everyone - but the regular approaches are covered by many other platforms.
By the way - on Cornucopia you also can choose between a cheaper node locked license and a more expensive "floating" license. And actually I think this is even more dangerous - if you are in need of an object and then notice that you bought it node locked to another Vue license - but this license is probably installed on an older machine not capable of doing the job - then you are in trouble.
And also keep in mind that Frank just started his service and I am sure that he has open eyes and ears for his (potential) customers.
Another point - thats simply my point of view. As (semi)professional user I always would by the commercial license. Why? Because even if I don´t use the clip file or object in a commercial context, I for sure will take a look at it and learn from it. So at a later point I have increased my knowhow for commercial projects. That saves me money and so I have benefitted from this file/object.
As I said, thats "my approach" to this topic.
And I guess if Frank notices that it doesn´t work, well then there might be the regular prices only - which would make it hard for hobby users to get those files.
I just want to repeat - thats my personal point of view.
best,
Walli
