It's not customer friendly, but it doesn't seem like it's going back on a promise, unless the license especially called for it.
- Dylan16807 11mo agoThat's a reason they're not legally obligated. It doesn't make me understand their actions in the sympathetic sense, and the sympathetic sense is how I interpreted "but I can also understand". It doesn't explain the choice they made. "Legally they could" applies equally to removing the download and keeping the download. The only reason I can think of, to make me understand in a much more derogatory sense, is they want to give a deliberately bad experience to customers that didn't give them money recently enough, trying to make them buy again to keep using the software.
