Those are good points, however, we use the action pack here and to be sure that we would be running legal we verified that it was alright to run the action pack in a live environment as an ISP and they replied that this was perfectly ok.

Careful.
 
Read the license before you put any public website or application, open to the internet, on the license provided by an action pack, an MSDN license, or a Microsoft Certified Partner license.
 
The US action pack license does NOT include an Internet Connector or a processor license for SQL. It includes a license to SQL server and 10 CALs (watch for wrappage in the URL below):
 
 
Note the specific restriction:
 
the Subscription includes a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, terminable license to make and use the number of authorized copies of the Microsoft software products (“Products”) set forth in the Microsoft Action Pack Subscription Product Licenses table in subsection (c), below, for internal business use, demonstration, testing, education, and evaluation purposes only (“Product Licenses”).
 
Internal business use does not include being the back-end for a website/webapp.
 
And, I would point out specific to the original question asked in this thread: the Action Pack license doesn't include downgrade rights.
