With the sudden, unexpected release of LiveCode and disappearance of revStudio, revMedia, etc., I'm feeling a bit stung by the 
midsummer "deal" we were all offered (and I and others accepted) to "SAVE 60% on revSTUDIO".  When I took 
this deal and paid the $99, I was led to expect a year's worth of complimentary upgrades to revStudio, not two month's worth of 
complimentary upgrades.  Unless I'm mistaken, if I wish to "cross over" to LiveCode, it's now going to cost me an 
additional $98, or approximately 2/3 of the $149 I was "saving" with the midsummer revStudio "deal"

I can't help but think now that this deal was offered, somewhat disingenuously, 
by RunRev, knowing that the product they were selling me was in effect going to 
be discontinued two months later?  Is this rather underhanded manner of 
behavior any way to treat your longtime, faithful customers? (rhetorical 
question)

"We want you to take the plunge and realize the benefits of Rev. Thats why we're 
making you a one time offer. Buy a revStudio license today for just $99 and save $150 We 
won't be repeating this offer any time soon."

Indeed.

Many attendees at the Edinburgh conference and subscribers to the DVD set had to wait donkey's ages for the DVDs. After some 'heckling' RunRev issued those who had not recieved their DVD sets with "extended licenses" that were "good" until September 4th . . .

'LiveCode' was released on September 19/20 (i.e. after September 4th) with a whole new way
of putting in licenses.

The "extended licenses" while serving to mollify a few did nothing else whatsoever:
as no updates post RunRev 4.0 were forthcoming prior to 5th September.

This kind of behaviour has happened before . . .

Indeed.
