        What was the original license that people paid for? Is there anything in there that would protect them?

          Clearly not , which only makes the point. Consumer protection for digital products is weak and needs reform.

      I only saw the warning the first time it was announced, which I transfered over back then. But then I never heard of it again, so if someone happened to have been busy and missed it the first time it made headlines I could see how they could be caught off guard with how I completely forgot about it until it made headlines for it being discontinued.

        For people that didn’t transfer right away, like me, I got so many emails telling me to transfer the account. So people that didn’t transfer right away, stil got plenty of notice
