Getting kinda sick of this, we really need some legislation on this. Im fine with a “you can keep the software after you stop paying, you just wont get updates” model, but this whole “fuck you, pay us for the rest of your damn life” for things that don’t need continuous upkeep? Complete bullshit
I know it’s slightly different, but that’s why I never buy “lifetime” subscriptions when they’re offered through apps because I don’t trust for a second that they won’t just up and change their policy in the future when somebody gets a wild greedy hair up their ass and decides to screw over their loyal customers.
