Have a look on any software manufactures websites, and you will find both upgrades and full versions. (The upgrades are cheaper as if you already have a previous version many of the features are already in it)
This has been common practice since the at least 60s, (Or possibly even earlier) although it only became mainstream in the 80s.

you say upgrade, upgrade is not the same as update.maby I misread your first post so sorry.

for upgrade they ask you for money but updates are free.you upgrade over several years.

but still there are plenty of software makers who only ask for donation or even there are software free of charge even if you download new upgrades.

it depends on what you want, to use. while there is more to use. times change there are more and more good free and open source software based on donations and even without donations for windows too.

a good example for for musicare Ubuntu Studio or 64Sudio, but both are base on linux.
