Movable Type is Now Free (Again, but don’t tell them that)
Honestly, we’ve put a lot of work into making Movable Type a professional tool, and that’s the reason it’s the most popular blogging platform for businesses, organizations, and professionals. But we know that personal bloggers are an important part of our community, and our success with businesses (and now with enterprises) helps us make Movable Type free for the individuals that want a professional-grade tool for their personal blogs.
I’m sure a steadily declining market share didn’t hurt either. Makes sense for them to do this, though. Their move to a paid model didn’t go over too well even with avowed MT fanboys, so this was probably more out of a realization of that than anything else.
Only problem is they realized it too late.
