i've been lurking here for a long time but guess I should finally register and chime in on this thread because I've been using linksmanager for about five years. I also received notice of the price increase.. its worth every penny in my opinion because I have a dozen hobby sites that do very well with relevant link exchange. the linksmanager software captures all of my incoming link requests and then sorts them accordingly until I approve or delete them. huge time saver.
