Brought this up in the wrong thread so I wanted to move it here.

So if Mastercam has thrown Version 9 in the garbage is it really stealing to use if without a license? Should the companies have to support the product for them to expect our government to enforce the laws to protect it.

Another thought. If X5(2005) is all it's cracked up to be they could give Version 9 away for free and everyone would like it so much they would flock to pay for the X5(2005) upgrade....
