Yes, I have exactly the same question (I posted it on si-community
yesterday). The question is regarding what happens if one transitions
and continues a subscription to Maya after Feb 2016. If you need to
continue accessing your old version of Softimage, are you required to
continue your subscription to Maya in order to maintain the Softimage
access the same way subscription is currently required to continue to
access previous versions. This will have influence over whether I begin
a Maya subscription.
Thank you,

Hi, mr. Patel,
Thanks for the update, but it raises another question:
(If this is a stupid question: sorry, I'm having a hard time
processing all this ATM.)
Two quotes...
From the OP:
/"Based on your feedback we will be adding the ability to continue to
acces/s Softimage indefinitely with your Subscription entitlement even
after we stop upport on Softimage in April 2016./

+7204
From the FAQ
/"If you need to use Softimage after February 1, 2016 you will be able
to access it through the Subscription center in the same way that
Subscription customers can access prior versions today."/
In the FAQ one element from your OP seems unclear. You clearly speak
of accessing "Softimage */indefinitely/*", while the FAQ states the
usage "*/in the same/ way* that Subscription customers can access
prior versions today.".
As I understand prior version rights aren't indefinite.I believe older
versions cease to be available after three years even under this
program. While I assume/hope the condition you've laid out in your OP
to be correct, but if so the FAQ could use some clarification in this
respect.
