Sign up to beta test for Boinx Software

Boinx Software is offering a beta test program for users. When I was a kid I joined the Willy Wonka Candy Tester program, and got secret, untested candies to chew on. Boinx's announcement has shades of that: "Do you want to be on the bleeding edge? Do you like to see what's coming next and don't mind if the application oder even the system crashes or the document you just created is lost?" Sure thing, I love losting data. Really though, this would seem like a great way to test their apps. Boinx makes some cool stuff, like my favorite, iStopMotion. The only problem I see is that you have to be a registered user to beta test. Does this mean betas are only open to paying customers? That seems a bit, er, silly. I mean, if you need an app enough to pay for it, why would you pay to beta test something that might not work? That sounds more like something Microsoft would do. Yes, I'm conveniently forgetting the OS X beta program
