We've been hit by this.

When I talked to them four years ago, they agreed we were good to use it for free, no problem.

The dollar figure they're asking for would make it the single most expensive software product we would be licensing in our enterprise, by a lot. The deadline is absurdly soon for such a big deal. And they opened discussion in an incredibly hostile manner and have made no attempt to work with us.

So, I'm helping lead the effort to completely purge them from our ecosystem. On the one hand, I'm sad because their stuff is pretty good. On the other hand, their behavior is bad and the product isn't better by the amount they're asking for.

Good riddance.
