Please note that minor program updates are still available for free of charge.

How to distinguish a paid major update from a free minor update? A major program update has a unique first number in the program version numbers assigned, e.g. SoundTaxi 3.4.8 differs from SoundTaxi 4.4.8, because the latter program version is a major update. A minor update version can be recognized by two numbers that follow the first number in the version name, e.g. SoundTaxi 4.4.8 and SoundTaxi 4.4.9 are minor updates, which are available for free to all customers.
