No.  On the other hand, when someone coughs up a couple of 
kilobucks to **buy** a piece of software, only to find out it's 
full of so many bugs it's dangerous to use, and then a matter of 
MONTHS later discovers the company has abandoned it (no future 
bug fixes, even if you can still buy it in Europe) and expects 
you to **rent** the software forever (no credit for the kilobuck$ 
spent on the previous version) if you want any bugs fixed -- then 
you can understand that person getting a bit annoyed.
