Well, one difference is, if you did happen to read the license agreement, you would find that for the individual user, there is no set time frame within which payment is legally expected. So there is no legal reason why the trial period for Navigator 3.0 could not extend all the way to the time 4.0 came out. But that is just the legalese. The practical matter is that Netscape lulled Joe Consumer into thinking upgrades for Navigator were free, and made no effort at all to collect payment for them. And that was their undoing.
