I am not exactly happy about the price increase, but if the domain is this important, is $15/yr really that bad?

Like I'm flabbergasted at people complaining about the burdens of doing something nobody would do, because the cost isn't worth the effort.

Now if they raised prices to $100+/yr I could imagine, but $15/yr is negligible costs.

The point is that they could raise the prices to $100+/yr if they damn well pleased. That's why the outrage, not over the 15 dollars
