Also in my experience software offered for free with donations excepted rarely ever recieve donations (I know I personally have only donated a very few times.) I'll also let you know that I've given away almost 3 times the number of copies as i've sold (Jason recieved one of those) so between that and the low price I've set i hope you don't think I'm being greedy either. @Jason: Thanks for the kind words about my plugin; I love it as well.

I'm not saying that all software should be free, but people need to be reasonable with it. Dineomataic is very cool, I like :)

I'm all for free software/music/etc. but if somebody puts a lot of time into something, they reserve the right to fair compensation. That compensation doesn't have to come through charging a fee though. A donation link is a more accepted method, especially for something as small scale as a plugin. Speaking of plugins, my new favorite OSX Dashboard widget is <a href="http://iconfactory.com/software/dineomatic/" rel="nofollow">Dineomatic</a> from the Iconfactory. You fill in all the restaurants you can think of for each category. Then, the next time you want to eat out, it picks a category and then a restaurant. I know, it doesn't sound all the exciting, but it's very well done...and free. I agree and disagree Justin.

You can see that the concept of charging for a plugin is heavily influenced by the fact that Mint is not free (which I also dislike). Could you imagine if WP plugins cost money?
