Don't get me wrong. I love Shadowrun, and I am very happy with Catalyst Games for how they have continued the game.
"It's a simple oversight. There is no malicious intent involved."
I can't agree with that. A simple oversight would have been fixed. You would only need to rewrite that one paragraph, or even add a small note after it explaining that it changed and why. After 8-10 months it has to have been brought up before. This post proves that, and it can't be the only one.
"Obviously that has changed but there is no way you could have been tricked into paying for the module believing it to be free."
I know that I wouldn't have mistakenly paid for it, but I could have if I had a big order and didn't notice it. I've ordered 6 sourcebooks at once before from battlecorps, and I could have missed it among the others. The reasoning is "Oh well, its only $4 who cares." is what most people would think. $4 isn't that much, and if someone wants it, they'll gladly pay for it. I know I was going to order all of season 4. But, the thing that made me go check it out was the "first mission free" thing. I'm not going to order it anymore though. I don't like when businesses do things like that, so I won't support it. However, when the FAQ is changed I'll more than likely go and order all of season 4. So, I guess the question is, is my business (and the very few people that think like me's business) worth taking 10 minutes to change one paragraph in the FAQ?
