The firmware upgrades have been free, but yes, you had to upgrade hardware after the first generation to get all the new features. Not unusual, especially with an evolving technology. I didn't buy a Bluesound Node until generation 2 so avoided the need to upgrade.
I'm probably not representative of users needing the latest streaming features available; it's a small part of what I listen to. For serious listening I use a NAS library with ethernet connectivity to the renderer (Node 2i and external DAC) with a Win10 tablet for the controller. If I upgrade anything right now it'll be the DAC.
