QUESTION: Is there a discount for the next release?

No, there is not. Development of an open-source OS requires a great deal of time, effort, and expense. At less than $30 per package for a complete operating system and over 1,000 packages --the price is right. Support our development effort and we will provide for you the highest quality PowerPC Linux distribution.

And you always have the option to download, for free, the complete distribution.
