As a point of observation, I signed up for DDi when 4e first came out but when my OS crashed I lost the old CB. So in order to reinstall it I relied on a resourceful ENWorlder who found the exe file through Google Archives.
There was no mention of how to access the old CB on WotC website.
I re-installed it and found out that I couldn't get any updates through WotC.
So the old CB content is frozen around PHB2.
Basically, if I don't switch over to the new CB then I've lost information. While the analogy is not entirely the same, if this were physical data it would be a trade-in. Something like getting the Rules Compendium and 2 Essentials player's books but I'd have to give up my PHB. Sure there might be *more* information, but shouldn't a customer get to choose which they prefer, especially customers who signed up before the new CB?
