When my 1 year subscription runs out....

It doesn't auto-renew. After it runs out it goes back to basic mode and you have to get a new key to get the paid features back (you should notice the nag screen right away after the key expires).

Do you know when it willl cease to function? Perhaps you can "post order" a new key? You'd have to ask Tom about it.

I don't think that's exactly true. If I understand what Tom said regarding this question a while back, you will keep all features of a registered version provided you do NOT upgrade to a new version AFTER your subscription runs out. I believe that as long as you are running a version that was provided during the subscription period, the software will work fully.

But, keep in mind that new versions add new features and fix bugs. If you are not having any issues with the version you are running and the feature set is acceptable, you should be fine to continue using the software indefinitely. If, on the other hand, you format your machine and reinstall, I don't know that the license will continue working.

This is a line of questions that Tom would have to answer to know for sure.

This is how I understood it as well!

Totally agree with deadboy and celly, i had a years sub then went for the lifetime and it is a VERY small amount to pay for such an awesome piece of software that is constantly upgraded and new features added, also the support is 2nd to none. nuff said.
