Quote - "Just because YOU choose freeware doesn't mean a vendor wants to participate in that business model."

If think the vendor has given his agreement at the moment he had decide to sell his product with the extended license !

Yet, here you are complaining about it.

Beside the fact that you are completely incorrect, you'll need to find the spot in the Game Dev license agreement, with each piece licensed as Game Dev, saying freeware is covered as well.
