Purchasing and supporting opera is well worth it if you enjoy the program. If you're a student there is a student discount available. If you can convince your campus IT to switch to opera (it's free) you'll all get free licensed versions.

Support software you use and love as long as the restrictions are reasonable. Your money supports the developers and continual improvements to the software.
