Capture One Express as a paid, perpetual license

I would really like to be a capture one customer - it is by far the best product for my needs and does a great job with Fujifilm raw. BUT as someone whose main income doesn't come from photography, I just can't justify a monthly subscription or paying hundreds of dollars for a perpetual license.

Please (please!!) bring back capture one express as a paid perpetual license for amateurs and pro-sumers! I'd happily pay up to 100USD for a license (and it used to be free!). At the moment you're losing potential customers - I've seen these frustrations repeated lots on various forums...
