Adobe Warns Customers of Potential Legal Action for Using Older App Versions (forums.macrumors.com)

Did Adobe acquire a license for end-users to use dolby technologies or a license for Adobe to distribute dolby technologies? It seems weird that there would be a time limit on a license to use features, whereas time limits on distribution is common.

Don't negotiate with terrorists. Just cancel and refuse to do business with Adobe for the rest of your life.
