I actually bought FL a couple of years ago... They would send me emails when new versions came out and upgrades were always free. As far as I know, they're not a big huge corporation.

Their fairly large actually. Theres quite a few other versions out there that you can pick up and try as well, but the newer one is better (obviously). The Chemical brothers have used FL for some of their songs as well as a few other big name artists. You really don't get bored with it or finding yourself running out of material because theres so much you can do with just one sound to create a ton of different effects etc. Just like everything else it's all up to the user's prefference. Some people just need to try out a few different programs before you find the one you like and can work with. Heh, like me. :P
