I felt the same way when I complained to MakeMusic about some FinMac 2008 bugs, 
and they told me there would be no more updates to 2008, but the bugs were 
fixed in 2009. I then requested 2009 for free, but my request was denied. How 
would you feel if you took a defective brand new laptop to the shop for repair 
and they told you they would not fix it, but you could buy the new model, which 
is not defective, for a fraction of the price? So I bought the Sibelius 
crossgrade for $99.
