Licensing question

I am surprised with the price of Quartus suscription edition. The price of one year license is $3000 (well, only 2995) (http://www.buyaltera.com/scripts/partsearch.dll?detail&name=544-1247-nd)....

I think (but check with FAE)

Subscription license allow using Quartus after expiration (i think for 10 years), anyway you can't use new versions that release after your license expire.

Arria V starter kit after 1 year expire and you can't use it anymore

If you want to update every year kit are fine, but if you want to update every 4 year subscription is better.
