Thank you antanas for your worrying about others! Very useful.

I said it became off the reaches of normal because it was downright rude and offending towards developers.
I think this is the point where this discussion became off the reaches of normal and should be ceased.
In business no one owes you anything, and by same logic, no one forces you to do anything. No one forces anyone into SaaS, and if someone doesn't like the choice, he doesn't need to choose at all,
but he's surely not a victim at any point.
Guys I think I failed to make my point, so I retire from this conversation,
Possibly, but on the other hand, an saas option may attract people who just want to try Corona for a while and don't want to pay the whole thing upfront ;) . Plus, if you already invested a lot of time (materials, scenes, workflow) it's more likely that you stay with it, thus renew your saas contract.saas is very good as an option, in fact it's actually better with it beside box license, more choices=better.
I am sorry, but I had only one life savings to burn through when developing Corona. Or even worse, people putting themselves on moral high ground, lecturing us on greed without actually knowing shit about real costs of running a company doing software development. I assume they just want to feel good about themselves when they will later steal it. But it still pisses me off, knowing what offers I had turned down because I did not want to screw our users.
And I will never understand people saying they dont know if they will have 25€ next month to pay for SaaS even though they could just set aside the money at the beginning.I don't know if you have ever lived hard times but, for modest freelancers (perhaps in your country as you mentionned in the first articles about pricing), it can easily become difficult sometimes, to pay 25euros for just a rendering engine, considering the fact that they'd have difficulties to pay their rent and electricity bill (I say this by experience).
It seems that the "only box, saas is evil" group is small, but very loud one.
Total payment for 3 years on box and you pay (450+100+100+100 = 750). Total payment for 3 years on SAAS (25 x 36 = 900
