I have been receiving the promised lifetime free updates for VueScan for 19 years.

Does it have the friendliest interface? No. Does it display a commitment to legacy hardware that shames even open source? Yes.

Same here, it's like GraphicConverter, no brainer buying a licence now and then. In the case of VueScan, I wouldn't really need it as I don't use it often, but it counts as 'asset' instead of feeling like i'm a cow to be milked.
