Sky,
MTU could hire and pay a beta team like Adobe does and the program releases would all work well but we would have to pay for this. The price of Hoster could double or tripple, if not more.

MTU offered all Hoster user the opportunity to buy Hoster at a reduced price. Acting as what you call a "beta tester" is why the discount is given. This fact is never hidden.

Testing beta versions of Hoster is more work than you can imagine, it's close to a full time job for me. Saying all of MTU's customers are beta testers is degrading to MTU's volenteer beta team in my opinion. They spend hours of their time (no pay) working with versions that are know to be incomplete because they are in development. A little respect for these guys who helped put Hoster on the map, that's all I'm asking here.

I appreciate all of you!

I have to test 4.05 which was just realeased for testng, please excuse me. Thanks Again

Jim
