I'm sorry, but this attitude shows me that you have absolutely no idea how
business, and to a lesser degree, life, actually is. To assume that they
'owed' you anything beyond the releases which you licensed from them. Note
the term, 'licensed'. You OWN NOTHING except a piece of paper that
constitutes a license to use their binary code. They owed you nothing, and
moreover, would have been within the rights granted them by that license to
revoke your license to use the product with their demise. Take a few
minutes to actually read a EULA before you make these statements. You sound
like a 6 year old child with arguments like they owed you.
