Draw to Texture Without Pro? (perhaps something on the asset store)?

Question

Blitting graphics to a 2D texture is a feature I often take for granted. It gives one more control over the rendering and allows one to apply cool effects such as surveilance cameras, camera effects that change the gameplay (e.g. mark of the ninja).

I've dabbled in some free frameworks before e.g. XNA and Slick (Java), and they've had this feature readily available. When I heard that I had to pay $1500 for access to something so basic, I was shocked.

Is their an alternative method which is equally efficient (without using set/getPixels)? Is there something on the asset store that would give me access to this feature for a smaller fee?

Render-to-texture is a Pro-only feature. There are not (or at least should not be) asset store plugins that circumvent this.

There must be some way to get access to such a basic feature without forking out $1500.

Can I buy just that one feature of pro, rather than being forced to buy it in a bundle with 100 other addons?
