TextMUD 2.0 costs .50 cents for a month, or a dollar for life. That's very cheap, but I have made money off of it. However, what I have done already is already worth more then double that in the new release. When everything is in place, these are the prices that I am considering putting on TextMUD:

Does this seem reasonable for a commercial-value program?
