Their &quot;subscription&quot; model was basically a year of small issue maintenance and 1-2 major versions. They spent more effort expanding into new markets than they did maintaining and improving existing tools. I don&#x27;t really anticipate them spending any more time on tool improvement despite the cash grab.<p>I don&#x27;t like companies that hold my development process hostage or treat me like a serf. I get that they want to stop maintaining old versions. But allowing people access to the full range of builds within their subscription (with maybe a slight exception of providing the next &quot;stable&quot; build after expiration) and some contract lingo should cover that.<p>Rental has its usage, but it&#x27;s not for everyone.
