Yes, I think, too, this is too much. This is the reason why I did not try JPlay yet. A few years back you did pay $4,99 for an app for the lifetime (I always asked myself how development can be financed by such low prices). If it was $50 until the next major update and the next major update would be offered with a fair update price, it would be fine for me. But $50 here, $10 there (e.g. for upnp servers ), and so on per year, this sums up. This is why I do not like subsription software licenses. I prefer to pay once and am finished with this.

Also I do not understand how JPlay is working. They say the app increases sound quality. How does this work? Is the music stream routed over the app that does transcoding or other processing? This would mean that the music data would flow twice over wifi. I do not like this idea.
