I have a potential client who has paid hundreds of dollars for your so-called 'open source' package and I'm not sure why.. What do you offer that other free open source packages don't?

Open source software (OSS) is computer software for which the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software license that meets the Open Source Definition or that is in the public domain. This permits users to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. It is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open source software is the most prominent example of open source development and often compared to user-generated content.

If he paid for the free version he was the victim of fraud.

We have loaded the CRE Loaded cart with tons of features, security upgrades, and additional functionality that was not there before.

The programmers that did that work to add that functionality to the cart software do deserve to put food on their table, Dont they?
