This is the problem I have with Cedega -- the fact it's a subscription service. I'd much rather just pay once for each major version, as you do with Crossover.

As to the price, if I recall correctly it's £5pm, which I think is actually quite expensive: for a year's subscription, you can buy a copy of XP Home or Windows 2000, and never have a single compatability worry.

That said, it does work very well from what I hear, and plenty of people are willing to pay for it. And I'd imagine there is a certain feeling of satisfaction to be gained from playing Half-Life 2 on Linux, completely against Valve's wishes...
