Sorry im new to using object dock and all, but i was wondering do i have to pay for the updates, or is it free and how do i get them when they come out?
You get the updates thru Impulse. And they are free.
The price is right: FREE!
ObjectDock is absolutely free to use and will never nag you to upgrade with popups or interruptions. No arbitrary limitations or hassles that free programs with 'enhanced versions available' often have. We keep great pride in maintaining our high-quality free version as well as our exciting Plus version.
What's the deal with "Plus"?
Simply put, ObjectDock Plus helps you organize how you work with your computer."Plus" is exactly what it sounds like - all the functionality and style that the free ObjectDock offers, 'Plus' a lot more. ObjectDock Plus is available for $19.95, and touts unique and extremely useful features not available anywhere else. Best yet, Object Desktop Network subscribers are eligible for a discounted price!
What voidcore posted needs some refinement.
ObjectDock comes in two flavours: free and Plus (paid). The free version is free to get and free to use, but it's not as often and as well looked after as the Plus version.
The Plus version is the one you have to pay for. You can pay a one-off fee and use it forever. You get all the updates in a particular iteration cycle free. For example, when I bought my OD+ it was version just before 1.5 (can't remember which one). I got 1.5 update and 1.9 update free, as well as being able to use the latest beta at no charge either. However, if I wanted to upgrade to 2.0, when it eventually (after over 2 years in development) gets released I'll have to pay. It will most likely be a discounted price since I have already paid for the Plus version. Also, if you buy OD+ a short (no clear timescales here) time before a major iteration (2.0, 3.0 etc) gets released you'll get the upgrade free, but that's at Stardock's discretion.
Cheers
Wow thats confusing thanks. So I'm guessing i get the updates free, but only if thats what stardock decides to release it for free.
Sort of. All the updates between 1.x and 2.0 (exclusive), 2.x and 3.0 (exclusive) etc are free. An update from 1.9 to 2.0 most likely won't be free.
