I paid in September for SLCC via PayPal, but until now I did not receive my licence code or at least any answer at all. Did this happen to anyone else?

Use Onyx or *censored*tail instead

...is $5.99. My opinion is that this "limited time only" price for loyal customers of $8.99 (now $9.99) software, for something functionally unchanged, is excessive. Others will disagree. A 50% of the base price upgrade? Oh well...
