Isn't that what buying from a PP will solve?

I can see that updating a piece of software that probably brings in minimal monetry value will be pretty low on Meridian's list.

It would be different if people were paying for it and there were not any other options. I would much rather get the MQA decoding as promised on my Meridian hardware that was certainly not free rather than spending time and money on fixing a bit of free giveaway software.
