Lifetime license from Audials+GAOTD: no good

<< < (3/5) > >>

Curt:
WhiteSmoke has just given me the same answer as Audials did:
"oh yes, you have lifetime key, but it was for version 2011 only, not for any upgraded version!"-Curt (May 10, 2012, 11:57 AM)

to compensate or something, they have just mailed me again and are now offering me
a >>lifetime key for 6 years<<!!,
upgrades included.

What is happening to words and their meaning?

The company seems to be appropriately named IMO. :-\

f0dder:
I tend to try and stay away from programs with "lifetime licenses"... or at least expect nothing more than "until the next major version", where "major" is defined as "100% totally arbitrary management decision".

Jibz:
Maybe we need to start offering companies "lifetime payment" when we buy their software? ;D
