Finally, a proper way to vote with my wallet in the browser wars. I'm sure Firefox can make more money from me individually by allowing me to pay them, rather than funneling me through Google for some eyeball $$$s, especially since I've personally switched to DuckDuckGo.

Actually that makes me wonder - how does Mozilla currently make money off me if I've stopped using Google searches in Firefox?

How much would you pay for Firefox per year?

Not OP but I would pay $5-10 per month without blinking an eye.

Similarly, if there were a $20-50/year option, I'd probably go that route.

It depends on what other value adds they bolt onto their "Firefox Pro" offering.

Just for Firefox itself as it currently is, if there was some official way to pay for it, I think $5-10 (some small multiple of a cup of coffee deal) is fair to support development for what is essentially the only remaining competitor to Google.
