License Upgrades cost more why???


Recommended Posts

No, you're seeing it right, but this is not surprising. It's quite common that an after-the-fact upgrade is more expensive that the initial purchase price differential.

 

Essentially you're getting a discount by committing to the upgraded version immediately.

Note that companies normally have some form of cost for every transaction.

 

So it's more expensive for a company that make 100 transactions at $1 each than having a single transaction of $100.

 

But in this case, it's the standard business deal of: "Buy three books and pay for two." So you can often buy a book trilogy cheaper than buying the books one at a time.
