Default Re: Existing Perpetual License Owners

My perpetual license is several years old (v12.8), before the subscription plans, etc. I don't believe I have a reinstatement code available to me. Not that I plan to, but with this new scheme Avid has all but guaranteed I will never update. I will not use a subscription. And I can't be the only one who thinks Avid has gone off the deep end with this licensing nonsense. I feel bad for those who don't have the option to ignore it.

Creators are spending a fair amount of time, energy, and mental effort wrapping their heads around what seems like a punitive and confusing licensing scheme. If all that energy was spent making music the world would be a better place.
