Reply To: Unfair Adobe upgrade policy?

Who knows what lurks in the hearts of Adobe… Only the shadow knows! ;)

However, I think the idea is that the software package you own is the Suite. You see it as a bunch of individual programs, but Adobe sees it as a single program: The Suite. You don't own InDesign, you own the Suite. You could, perhaps sell your copy of CS4 and use that money to buy a copy of InDesign CS5, but then you wouldn't own the other programs anymore.

I think it's extremely unlikely that you can “appeal” this.
