No, I don't agree, and the accusation is about to get you into trouble here.  You are free to be as unreasonably and frothing-at-the-mouth unhappy as you desire about Justsim not giving you something you have somehow convinced yourself that you are entitled to...you are not free to publicly accuse them of lying here.

Simmarket offers an optional service to create installers for add-ons they market...the installers that open a web browser and take the 20-character registration code and e-mail to produce a long time-limited installer code that you cut-and-paste into the installer to proceed.  I have no idea how Simmarket charges for that service, but I do not believe it's free.  If the developer creates his own installer--as many like FlyTampa, LatinVFR, FSDT, Flightbeam, Tropicalsim and others do, then they are not depending on (or paying for) Simmarket to do that installer build work for them.

So please dial it back a couple notches.

So you are saying that its the installer that SimMarket is building for them that costs money and not the delete/upload action of a new file ( @Farlis ) .

This is a good assumption, but sorry still an assumption. Why? Because this is not what they say on their announcement. They say "this is policy of the publisher". 
So, even if what you say is what they are talking about they could say "We don't make our installers, instead we pay SimMarket for our installers, so we pass this cost to our previous customers". Agree?

If the word "lying" is not allowed in Avsim then I can rephrase it to "bad business in my opinion". 

Regarding the:

"about Justsim not giving you something you have somehow convinced yourself that you are entitled to..."

I will kindly ask you to rephrase your irony here and dial back a couple notches too.

A company can do whatever they want for a new update, they can charge 3x times more if they want to. And me as a customer can judge their actions? Right? I am not entitled to anything, I express my opinion about their strategy based on what the rest of the developer's world is doing and what they are offering compared to this company. Do not confuse yourself and do not be sarcastic. 

 

Nobody is required to explain to you in detail how they price their products. 

"Bad business in (your) opinion" is a lot different that "they're lying."

You've had your say here.
