What happens when you just download FasteR? Does it work for a limited period and then stop working, will it ask me for a license each time I start it?

Also, why would I pay €399 for FasteR while its main competitor is more mature and completely free? Aside from Excel add-in, the two other reasons I've found are in the comments here: "graphical user interface for selected packages/functions, support for multiple monitors". Am I missing something?

Current version of software show you info about licensing options (if you have it without license ID).

399 is for both editions of software for next two years. There are multiple reasons not only two... Mainly the GUI, but this is not in current 0.4.1 version available in the form as I imagine. I only follow the advice: Release something before you are satisfied.
