Jeff,

Glad to see this plugin getting some play on your site. Seems to be a bit of venom in the posts here, but I was glad to see you posting about it.

@donnacha of WordSkill, I think free is free in this case. You could run a simple shop with paypal and have everything you need. I think the plugins are reasonable if you are going to make money with something, it's worth spending a bit. We're not talking about a typical wordpress plugin that gives you pretty galleries here.

I have used the shopp plugin for a few years now and loathe it. It went from slightly buggy with mediocre to poor support to buggy with dismal support as they expanded. Every support request get's labeled with "not covered in support try the forums". The forums are USELESS as well.

I can't wait to try the Woo plugin as I have a customer using shopp that needs a redesign in the next few months. I've been using woo for about a year and look forward to the experience. Since I was planning on paying $200 for it (like some of the other premium themes there) I couldn't be happier with the way they've rolled it out. Though I'm not a subscription member, so my view might be quite different from theirs.
