I became one of Brian's customer's almost two years ago and, through all the name and licensing changes since then, he has always treated his existing customers extremely well. With a StudioPress developer package, you get outstanding ongoing support without having to pay a $20 per month subscription fee.

A recent WPTavern poll about paid theme companies had to be abandoned due to the rather clumsy attempts to manipulate it, but it is notable that Brian, whose StudioPress was running a strong second before the cheating began, did not lower himself to that level. The character of the people you do business with is important and I have always had a good feeling about Brian.
