same now, except that with the subscription model some parts of the access are time limited
this is all stated in the 'terms and conditions' [EULA] - it catches out a lot of people who don't read and understand them
this is not to defend Xara/magix, personally I think it is a rip off, it's just to say that cavet emptor applies and everyone shouild read them and understand what it is they are actually buying
Towards finding the EULA, how many know where it is?

Read https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...?82634-Licence #1 & #10 to ge a readble (not necessarily understandable) RTF version working.
Xara has not exactly rushed to fix this defect.

Happy reading.
