I'm uncomfortable with the one-time pricing. This is the second product 37S has released with that pricing scheme (first: basecamp breeze). could be an innovation. i think it creates more ambiguity. if i pay onetime for something I feel like i should own it, not rent it. Still, interesting experiment.
So.... you'd rather keep paying for it and not own it, than pay for it once and not own it?
I'd like to rent it, because that's whats actually happening.
A one off price for a SaaS product feels a bit like the software version of a ponzi scheme.
It's interesting to see a long form sales letter being used by 37 Signals. It's good copy, but light on details and I'm still not sure who this is targeted at.
Is this meant to be launched or is this something that leaked?
