People complaining about updates (me included) don't seem to see the overall just of the situation.
No matter what happens to the game, most of us will still play it. I know I will, at least. To add to that, I don't remember the last time I downloaded an Add-On, because I simply don't need any. If anything, I need less. Most of the Add-Ons I don't use. I find the game entertaining by itself. Sure, Add-Ons enhance the experience, but sometimes too much enhancement is a bad thing.
I don't know about the rest of the community, but, no matter if Badspot decides to update it or run with his money, I will still play the game, because I just find it as an entertaining, fun game, and it has a nostalgic place in my heart.
