I don't want defend he, I'm sure Bellsey is capable about, what I mean is about his many limitations. He try to answer without break the rules AD and USA law, I think it is clear.

No, I'm not satisfied about many answers (but has some good points), but seems he cannot doing better,so blame AD but not the employers.

Every years is the some story... I think the better choice is not renewing subscription, AD understood only this point (money), don't renewing subscription is the only weapon in your hands against a so big (deaf and arrogant) company. I will doing so, I don't need many (all...) of 2013 new features, and I have a serious doubt in 2014 will cage so much (but would like see it before say something)

Yes Shrekom, you're right.
I get angry/frustrated and have bad day/moments and vent on forums instead of going for walk. A walk! What a great idea! Will do after posting this
To Mr. Bellsey: I have nothing with you man lol and even I may sound harsh sometimes my intentions are not to stir bad feelings but my opinion remains that people like frank and straight to the subject answers. Look at Luc-Eric for example. He said many times things that we maybe didn't like (like Maya being the best thing in town, etc.), but we liked the fact that saying those without engaging in small-talk or going around in circles. This is how I see things and I'm expressing them as MY opinion, nothing more, nothing less. I have no hard feelings towards anyone.

@Hirazi No one is denying the right to express their opinion to anyone. At least I'm not.

I no way think you're putting up a smokescreen or anything like that, but just to very selfishly ask something that is now worrying me: will my current SI license always be valid? I know that the cloud-stuff is still "up in the air" but Ken's talk of renting older version has me very spooked. It's like toyota saying they'll take my car away next year if i don't start paying rent on it.

Perhaps this is another thing you can't answer and if so fair enough - you don't make the rules - but maybe in time you can point me to someone who can. Frankly i would like something in writing about it and will be checking my terms and conditions asap.

As for the guys getting angry at Bellsey: please don't kill this forum guys! As i said before i'm getting that NewTek-vibe

Closing this thread at this point as it have been circling for a while. I think we all need a break and should step away and let our heads clear a bit.
