If I bought a license in 2004, then run XP for ten years on the same machine, why should I pay for updates when I don’t need the update? If the license said three years, then I’d know I’d be out of support for the last seven years Everybody knew that updates weren’t free and they’d buy licenses when it was time to move on. But it’s hard to justify moving on when the software is still running fine even on Windows 10.
