You can also just search for their EAP programs and get them for free that way too.

This is a great tip! I had no idea. Free beta (alpha?) builds:

I can't figure out how to download the IntelliJ EAP. Everything seems to direct to the standard Commercial/Community IntelliJ download page. Anybody have a link?

OTOH that means you have to upgrade quite frequently (EAP stop working) and the editor is completely broken from time to time.

Also if you take part in a prerelease EAP (before the product is 1.0) (and your feedback is constructive and valuable enough) Jetbrains might gift you a license. That's how I got my first year of PyCharm (well my first year after the EAP ended anyway).
