They're not the first ones to do this, CoolIris does a very similar thing.
The problem I've encountered with such plug-ins is that they don't seem to offer the same level of support as community-based free software. If there's a problem with one of these plug-ins, I submit an email or bug report to their tech support, but NEVER have I seen a response or an effort to put out a newer release.
On the other hand, the free ones go through rapid upgrade cycles to ensure it is less buggy/more effective. It seems "You get what you pay for" isn't true anymore.
