So why actively force people - even people who aren't a support drain for you - to upgrade?

Just leave me in peace with my 1.8.

I can't recall a single issue that Rob hasn't fixed or otherwise addressed. There is certainly no one posting "I spent time with rob working on my keyclone issues, and he just couldn't fix it" So I would say the people having problems with 1.9 are average, but it seems they all get solved (or go away). Seems like you're argument here is kinda flimsy.

Bug fixes from 1.8 to 1.9 are well worth any hassles you come across (IMO, considering there has been no huge detrimental issues with 1.9).

I've guided a few people (that have NO business tinkering with their PCs) through 1.8->1.9 upgrades flawlessly. It's literally, so easy a cave man could do it.

And meh, when you have a lot of users changing their licenses, email gets slow, news @ 11. Unless your ISP / Mail server is eating it.
