Sorry guys. I am going to come back tomorrow to read your posts a bit better. I just wanted to get this example in that will make my point about trials really obvious. I had forgotten about it.

One day I decided I wanted a program to append .wav files. Okay so no one I asked on the MultiCharts forum knew of one. So I went to google and did a lot of searching. Within 30 to 60 minutes I found about 5 of them, downloaded them one by one as free trials (some were just free), kept uninstalling them until I found one that only had one thing I did not like much but found a work around for. I kept it. Could you imagine if I had to pay $50 to try each one out with a promise that they would return the money. Just imagine the time I would have had to spend dealing with this. No chance. I do not think anyone in their right mind would want to be having to try and get their money back from the 4 looser of the 5 programs I tried that night. I guarantee that when BIAB finally has 5 competitors they will be forced to have a free trial because the other competitors will force them by doing it first.
