Back when the KSO was introduced, one of the early adopters ( I think it was Tubemonkey) claimed that the KSO would pay for itself. Well, now less than a year in, does that claim stand up?

I understand " paying for itself" to mean that if you take advantage of thje Special Offers ( the SOs) , you will realize $114 in savings over the life of the device (The original KSO was $114.)

I'm issiung a friendly challenge to all you proud KSO owners:
Now let's assume that the life of the device is 2 years (my guess is that most people will upgrade after 2 years).

Based on your buying record so far, will (or has) the KSO paid for itself ?
I'm asking you to show your work, too by listing the savings you have gained forom all the SOs you have taken advantage of .

Tia,
