Re: Softimage license transfer

I hate what Adsk did, we all do. But a refund?! for "wasting your time studying it"? Come on...! Should we get a refund for every software that I have bought, study and went EOL or stop getting updates? like Mudbox, all Macromedia stuff like Flash Free Hand, etc, or even Softimage 3D? (I didn't
