you're right, many, if not most, plugins are not updated.

the option to buy the content and do it yourself is good but I fear not too many will do it - cuz i'm assuming the price of all the content in your plugin will not be something cheap like $299. Webmasters by and large are cheap, even the ones who have loads of money.

Here's a thought, combine both options - Lease to Buy, figure out a price per month price where at the end of some period the webmaster has paid for it all in full. Never seen it done before. Dunno if it would work.

I don't think it's going to work out well for you if the big majority of your customers take the free option - i don't think your upsells will be enough to make you happy. Though .......... AEBN works this way ........ so it would seem that it is working out for them........but they also have the option to lease their feeds for a flat fee. Wonder which one makes them more money. The good thing about the free plugin is that you will get more exposure, with bandwidth prices so cheap now, it won't break you.

I'd do like AEBN.............free plugin with upsell commission ...and the leased plugin. Just be careful not to give away too much in the free plugin.
