Maybe I am missing the point here, but is this policy any different than most computer software or perhaps a college textbook. Ex. I buy Windows 95, 3 years later Windows 98 comes out, I don't get it for free. Perhaps I can get an upgrade package at a cheaper price, but through all legal channels (at least any that I am aware of) I can still expect to pay something. The same with a college textboox. You buy a book, six months later new research changes some of the ideas in the book. In most cases, you have to buy the new edition for that information. I know under some circumstances, companies do give upgrades in this circumstance for a certain amount of time, but I don't feel as though a company is ever bound to do give free upgrades to a product.
On the otherhand, in terms of software, I suppose some people see 3.5 as more of a patch than a stand alone product. I can see that point, but then a patch can't stand on it's own. 3.5 can. You can use 3.5 without ever owning 3.0
