Sublime Text is so awesome, I don't mind it's constant begging for a license purchase or whatever. It's right up there with Winrar.

And the license is awfully expensive. I was going to the website to pay $50 for my 7 developers, but it turns out it’s $100. No way.

Or $65 per year: https://www.sublimehq.com/store/text

I often see downvotes when people criticise ST's pricing, but I mostly agree with the detractors - the price always seems to be just a few bucks over the magical limit I'd be willing to pay.

Tech workers often spend $100 or more on a fancy meal with friends in a single night—I've definitely done that more than once. So paying $100 for a software license that I’ll be using almost every hour of the workday, and even more when working on personal projects, feels like a bargain.

I do wonder why it is that way though, because you're right, I've balked at the cost of software before, but had no issue in spending an order of magnitude more money on a flight to SF to meet up with other developers.
