Why should I pay $20 to upgrade to ExpanDrive 2.0? I understand that developing software isn't free, but I'm hesitant to rely on a product that will require me to pay to upgrade. I bought 1.x more than 60 days ago but found it unusable because it was slow and unreliable. I just can't justify paying another 66% of the purchase price just to get the functionality I wanted in the first place.

Take a cue from other applications in this space like Textmate and Transmit. Both offer free upgrades and have attracted a loyal following being the defacto standard for quality must-have apps. I really like the concept of ExpanDrive, I just wish it was more consumer friendly.
