Its costing me more to keep up to date with MC than it is for windows ??

Please, this happened to me after I bought MC16 too, not again, please  >:(

JimH:
If you bought after July 10, you received an MC18 license.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

I purchaced on the 1st  :-\

Any chance of a concession ?

I do think that one month should be a reasonable period to expect a free upgrade.

Microsoft are letting us have free upgrades to windows 8, after a much longer period.!

Hendrik:
MC18 has just been announced, its not really available yet, so your one month period has not really started yet.
Same arguments as every time this comes up, you just have to define a fixed date, if they extend it to the 1st now, someone will come that purchased it on the last of June and wants it too, and so on.

Also, if you already had the same issue when going from MC16 to MC17, you then waited all this time until you bought MC17?
New releases happen about every 9 to 10 month, so next time plan ahead =)

Jong:
What we do need to remember (and I admit I did not) is most companies would not be mentioning their new version until much, much closer to release. If the upgrade was first offered when finalised, maybe next year, then all those who bought in June/early July would not even consider they were due a free upgrade.

Really JRiver are offering free upgrades from 17-18 to all who buy within about 6-9 months of MC18's release, which is actually very generous.
