That's not what I was suggesting at all! The only fair thing would seem to be to remove that bit about making MA3 final free to recent purchasers of MA2.6. Otherwise you're penalizing the early upgraders, who are perhaps your best customers. You could allow the MA3 betas to work with an MA2.6 key (so we don't have to enter TESTFISH to run them), but require a new key for MA3 final, for which everyone pays. (It's not like you're charging huge sums for this (really fantastic) program, in any case.) I know I'm arguing that I should have to pay again, but I think I'd be a bit miffed if (as a loyal customer) I had upgraded to MA2.6 when it first came out and then had to pay again for MA3, while someone (like me) who upgraded to MA2.6 only yesterday did not.

But how you choose to deal with this is, of course, your call.
