A bit early to tell I'd say. Always hard to know who doesn't use something because of these things. But I think everyone can agree that this wouldn't have worked from the start; needed to build up a dependence on the software and interfaces before springing this. Feels a bit bait-and-switch every time someone's software gets commercially popular so they feel the need to change tack. Almost makes me wish it didn't become popular and widely distributed so the developers don't get this urge to do the switch. Then again, I'm always happy to see people get rich when they work hard on stuff.
