YES!!!
That is why I posted this info to the list.
Now there is one more thing that it an advantage of LO over MSO. You do
not have to rent it.
I do not know how many people would be comfortable with renting
software. I really would not trust MS not raising the rental fee for
year two. Then there is the issue of having some code that MS will send
to either give you another year of service or to disable MSO from being
used. I would bet that there will be a "virus" that would be made and
sent out that will disable such a built in enable/disable license code
system.

This doesn't really seem to be a good move by Microsoft as it would drive many
people away it!. it is such a great thing that Lo exists

Note, too, that the old argument, "I bought it,
so it's mine," will be out the window--if it's rented, it clearly is
not yours to copy, etc.
As far as I remember, it was never yours. Most EULAs forbid e.g. reselling of
box copy. They clearly state that they grant you right to use software,
nothing more.
