iloco - to answer your question about 'will e-on allow double upgrade from vue 4 pro', they are aware of that issue by now, but I do now know if they can or they will do something to prevent this. Once you have upgraded to a new version of any software, your current license applies to the most recent version you have. Former versions should ideally be destroyed. Now, it is clear that you want to hold on to that older copie to reinstall upgrades or to view old scenes that the new version may not be able to view. That's perfectly acceptable. What is not allowed for example, is to keep your recent version and give away the old version to your sister or your friend. That kind of transfer of ownership applies to all versions, including the last one you purchased. Another example is what we have here, once you upgrade from one version to the next, you lose the right to upgrade from that version again. This kind of behavior is unethical at best - it's up to e-on to decide how they will handle it.
