Aren't you now entitled to only 'critical' updates?  was that the case then?

  
  
  I think it's just recently that 'regular service packs'  (not
  extensions or updates that add functionality)
  are considered as a "subscription advantage".  (except for big
  bugs)
  
  I guess to further entice recurring customers, but not just by
  means of providing 'good products'.

  Products without an

  However, downloads to
  repair functionality, such as hot-fixes for urgent
  and/or pervasive issues, as well as security
  patches are available to everyone regardless of
  contract status.
  

  

  Does not compute. Service
packs are downloads to repair
functionality, and should therefore be provided to
all customers regardless.  []

Service Packs on the main release can be found online at AD, and 
installed without any license changes.
The Extension packs (and their SP's) need an active license to login and 
download afaik.


A new release (e.g. 2015>2016) will include all of the above, and the 
new stuff.


All this makes a confusing set of updates ;)

I was able to update to SP6 by downloading it first from the Autodesk 
website.
Also updated Mental Ray.

Thanks for the clarification, it did give my an error when I tried to 
update via the Maya interface.

AFAIK any version always included any updates within its version. It's not
an upgrade, its an update.
