Digital BW, The Print

Unfortunately while it may not make you happy it would not be a "scam".
It's not as though they are taking anything away from you.  Simply, in order
to get the extended capability (read the ability to use ACR with the XT),
you need to have the latest version.  That's just life.  If they didn't
charge (and people didn't pay) for additional functionality you can be
assured it would not be developed....I hope for your sake that it is not the
case but you can't be up-in-arms if it is.
