Crist, not quite 100% accurate. Perpetual License are permeant and last 
forever, but with newer Flex License structure also require a SW Support 
Contract. Subscription based licenses of course expire at end of the 
subscription date, but do include SW Support.

Trial and Demo licenses always come with end date, usually 60-90 days in the 
future. I am not 100% sure about expiration for Lab Licenses.

I think the key here is that the OP had evaluation licenses. Those are
timed and things stop working when they expire. Purchased license are
permanent and do not expire.
