Right now, Dune is my favorite due to CPU usage, Virus-like (VA style) programming, and I don't think its more for the Mac version? They certainly did not charge me more for version update from 1.1 to 1.2.
Also, Zebra2 has undergone many transformations but never charged me beyond what I originally paid them.
Sylenth I think has only undergone 1 or 2 upgrades in the 2-3 years I've owned it, but I've never paid more than once.
Having the three of those in your arsenal would be under $600 US, give you an astounding library of free sounds, and I don't think there would be any cost beyond that.
Dune is new, but I think it will be around a while. Zebra2 and Sylenth1 have been around a long time, have never fallen out of style, and the developer has never hit me up for more money.
