Thanks for the answer.
I know it's used by a lot of companies, but IMO this practice it's nearly to scam.
pd: not personal harassment to BRN it's for all companies.
I know it is nothing personal. I didn't interpret your original post to mean it was an attack on BRN or a personal one.
I understand your thoughts and feelings about version "lifetime" license - I really do.
Many typical, reasonable people automatically assume that the terminology "lifetime" means the current version and all future versions. When they find out that it is only a lifetime license for a particular version they are apt to feel a certain way about it. A lot of the dissatisfaction comes down to the user taking the word "lifetime" at face value and not knowing that there are various lifetime license models. Because of this basic misunderstanding, vendors such as AppGuard, Horizon DataSys, Macrium, Revo, VMWare and a bunch of others are criticized for their version-only lifetime licenses.
I understand that the word "lifetime" to describe licenses is not ideal and can cause misunderstandings that lead to hard feelings on the user's part. I personally much prefer "version license" or "perpetual version license."
I can assure you that BRN's past use of the word "lifetime" was not intended to make people think that they were purchasing a forever lifetime license - and
therefore much more willing to buy the product.
Anyway, version-only lifetime licenses are pretty much on their way out with industry vendors transitioning to the yearly subscription model. As for lifetime licenses that give the user a license for all future versions, those lifetime license types are pretty much economically unfeasible for the vast majority of publishers and therefore are being widely phased-out.
