That's an argument... Then, the SIB price should be raised to e.g. 7,99 USD - because then the price would still be "just a bit over" Start8.
If you compare SIB with Start8, there are fundamental differences:
- Start8 comes from a company, SIB from a user. That causes a different price level.
- Start8 comes with support from a company, SIB has a lot of user-support (look at the entries in this and the other SIB threat), that the author does not have to pay for itself.
Come on, SIB was also so attractive _because_ of its lower price that Start8, its main competitor.
With a 100% price increase (that a HUGE one!) of Tihiy, that pro-SIB-argument is gone totally

SIB prices are gonna change to $2.99 (1PC) / $4.99 (2PC) / $9.99 (5PC).
That's a hefty price increase of up to 100% !
Previously, SIB had a price tag of $3 for 2 licenses and $5 for 5 licenses.
I intentionally waited to buy SIB til I had the time to upgrade my Windows 8 PCs to Windows 8.1 - but of course I didn't expected a price increase for SIB that is that hefty and came all of a sudden.
Are there any reasons for this?
Will there be a "Christmas-Special" or "New-Year-Special" promotion with the old pricing tags or a more atractive price level?
I would definitely appreciate that.

>>If we're talking about prices, then actually, it is 1¢ down. It's license price that matters.
Nope, it's a 100% price increase - from 4,99 USD for 5 licenses to 9,99 USD for 5 licenses.
>> I can throw a lot of pro arguments but you won't listen - you need a lower price [] Write me a letter.
I did post my anger about this hefty price increase in the forum here already.
I did not want a lower price. The only thing I am asking for is that I would like to have the very same price you had until mid-November.
For me, nothing happend at that time that could serve as understandable argument for a 100% price increase.
As I suggested, a "Holiday-Sale" or a "Special Christmas Offer" that brings back the original pricing of Startisback for a limited time could be a welcome idea - I think not only for me but also for several other prospect customers
Just a short question, since someone else here compared SIB with Start8 (that wasn't me): Does Startisback+ have Jump List support?
In the feature list I could not find it there.
