    Which part of "Buy Opera today - For the best internet experience Ad Free" do you not understand?

    So if you buy it, they will get rid of every ad on every web page I visit? Now that is worth paying for. Otherwise, forget it.

    Opera is neither free as in speech nor free as in beer.

    [sarcasm]Yep! We must do anything we can to avoid paying money to people who develop high quality software. When a company offers a good software product at a fair price, we have to immediately start looking for free alternatives.

    Remember, if we all work together, we can drive small, innovative companies like the one that produces Opera out of business. If we really try hard, we might even be able to increase unemployment and drive down wages in the software engineering field![/sarcasm]
