And premium support will cost premium money. That's why for an
"economy" package it must be perfectly clear in the first place that
support will only come in the form of maybe a website with a FAQ and
the bug fixes that are produced anyway for the premium support
customers. You can report a bug but don't expect a patch the next
day. If someone doesn't like that he should either use the free
version or the Pro version. Maybe under conditions like this there is
no demand for an "economy" version?
