Matt thanks. I had this thought as well, but...the wording of the license agreement for 2014 leaves a little question whether this is legitimate because the MI2 would not have been made with the software the MR license is through (max and maya) Section "10.1.1 Rendering." I'm no lawyer.
But trying to get someone at Autodesk and or a Reseller to give me a conclusive answer about the upgrade...it's like they don't want my money.
