I moved to PySolC, it's free. It has more games but its gui is not nearly as good. I still miss Grandma's Game but there is a similar one. Also Imperial Trumps is very unusual.
The last software I bought was a bundle from Humble Bundle. It was a game development themed bundle, so I got a bunch of basic tools like RPG Maker Ace, I think a couple other engines, and some spriting software (which is what I was actually after since I didn't have a solid way to make 2D animated sprites). Also had some games! Goats on a Bridge is deceptively difficult.
It's a superb piano, but I'm still terribly in love with the "PN Arena Ambiance" preset on Nexus 2. I find myself reaching for Nexus 2 over The Giant. But, don't let that dissuade you. The Giant is still a really great plugin.
Seems like most people here bought games. My last software purchase were games too, so I won't mention them.
The last non-game purchases I made were VoiceAttack (it's gaming related but can be used for other stuff too), A donation to LibreOffice and and 3DMark on the last Steam sale.
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. It went on sale for $25 and I pulled the plug, though I usually don't buy any game over ~$12-15, and even then very rarely because my backlog is ridiculous.
It was an excellent decision. That game is amazingly fun, and I have a feeling it and Civ 5 will keep me busy for a loooong time.
The most recent was that I actually got sucked into paying for Office 365. Being able to slap the full Office suite on three home computers and get 5TB of storage for $10 a month was legitimately worth it in my household of Excel addicts. Before that, Pillars of Eternity.
I think I donated to GNOME? I'm not even sure anymore. I've been using FOSS as much as possible, and it's kind of just become a habit now. I don't play games much either, so there's very little left to pay for. (I do remember having to pay for some stats programme a couple of years ago for a uni course, but that was exceptional).
I paid for a phone app called Noom Coach. It has a really weird name but it has helped me loose 18.1 kg so far since I started using it about 5 months ago. Its primarily makes counting your calories a lot easier but has many little functions that all add up to what helped me loose my weight. :)
Package Disabler so I can disable bloatware on my S6 Active until their (hopefully) is a root. I recommend it to any who either can't or does not want to root but wants disable bloatware.

Damn you kids and your games... I bought Microsoft Office365.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go play with an accounting spreadsheet.
So will I. ;)

The Neutron Music Player for Android. It's the best music player app with playlist support that I've yet found.
All software: Humble Bundle a couple of weeks ago. Non-game: Windows 8.1 upgrade.
I think my last large software purchase was probably NI's The Giant. That's a really nice sounding piano I use for some of my tracks.
Holy....I am buying that thing next pay. o.O

I'm just starting playing with something other than my trusty launchpad, thanks for thel ink! I'll take a good look at the Nexus 2 :D
My Adobe Pro subscription. I hate and love it at the same time.
The Witcher 3, I'm about 70 hours in and still haven't completed the game, although I think I'm getting close.
Bought a couple titles during the last Steam sale. Haven't even installed them yet.

I just pre-ordered NHL 16 so it definitely counts.
I just tried grabbing the Monday bundle from indiegala for Shadowgate, but something happened.

I thiiiink it was Notability.
I'm considering paying for ElementaryOS, but Ubuntu is free.
The last non-gaming software I purchased was probably Office 2013 through my .gov account for $10/$15.
Magic for my tablet. Great app/game.
Affinity Photo- similar to photoshop but without the bloat and subscription fees. Love it.
Adobe CC. It feels weird to be legal.

I have never paid for any software because I sail the seven seas of the internet. Yarr harr.
I just today scored office 2008 for Mac from my uni bookstore for five whole dollars, it's been a while since I had physical disks.
