That's the problem with DRM
Any time you have a system where you pay for a product, and the
manufacturer can completely change the terms of usage at any
point without your agreement, you're just setting yourself up for
situations like this. When you buy something like this, you never
actually know what it is that you're buying, or how long it will last
in its current form.

Not a good deal for the consumer.
