5. Capitalized Software Development Costs

Capitalized software development costs, exclusive of those recorded within property and equipment, consisted of the following:

		September 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
		(in thousands)
Gross capitalized software development costs		$	31,433			$	25,152
Accumulated amortization			(22,867	)			(18,629	)
Capitalized software development costs, net		$	8,566			$	6,523

Capitalized software development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of two to three years.

The following table summarizes software development costs capitalized, stock-based compensation included in capitalized software development costs, and amortization of capitalized software development costs.
