I could see people buying even pricey software this way, via monthly payment – it would feel like “leasing” to most consumers. The potential for abuse would be consumers purchasing for “one big project”, making two payments and being done in 60 days – but really, what’s wrong with that? It would be similar to renting, would expose people to the software, and the manufacturer would at least get *some* money as opposed to pirating (which consumers are more likely to do if they just need software for a short period). (”Yo, charley, can I borrow your InDesign disc for this one brochure??” ) When people use your product, they’re more likely to purchase it (if it’s a good product). I like it.
