Unlike the full subscription approach (which so many dread here and which doesn't seem popular in Adobe-land), I suspect that any major versions of Pro Tools released during the period of cover would be deposited in your Avid account so that you may transfer that licence to your iLok.

Others will surely still be able to buy that version outright. The question is then, can current PT11 users who do not want the cloud or support aspects just sign up (possibly just for one year) when PT12 gets released i.e. is $199 the new upgrade cost?
