OK, so you guys finally upgraded SCCP. Of course you forgot the most important thing---- A BETTER WAY TO DO SHIPPING!!!!! :/ :/

I fully understand the need for you guys (CC) to make money, thus this S-Drive thing and the need to get a monthly fee from people. But, I for one, still don't get the S-Drive thing. I still don't know what it is, as you guys have yet to explain it in laymans terms other than to tell everyone to try it first! I have no desire to do so, as what I have works fine. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!! Besides, my service only costs me $5 per month. Yours is 3 times that much!!!! And my Stats are FREE!!!

My question is this. If I upgrade to the new version of SCCP, do I have to use the S-Drive? Or can I continue with the web server I currently use?

My second question is this: Are those that upgraded satisfied or are you having problems??? You know how upgrades can be. :D

Version 3.9 is an interim upgrade before version 4.0 is released. This allows us to slowly release updates and new features regularly then having customers wait long periods of time between updates.

S-Drive makes it convenient for people who do not fully understand how to buy a domain name, get a hosting provider and setup their shop. With our service, we are a one stop shop. Having your shop hosted on S-Drive gives you features most people cannot get elsewhere, and the stats we give you, I am quite sure you have nothing like it currently. ;) The other good thing about our service is we control the servers, so we will be able to offer much more complex features that most users could never setup themselves. You can find all sorts of information on it here at http://www.coffeecup.com/sdrive/

As S-Drive develops, we will be announcing exciting new features.

S-Drive is completely optional and you can always use your own servers.

As to upgrading, updates are always free, so man up and install it!! ;)
