That is correct.

However, as RunRev claim that RR 4 is better than RR 2.2.1 (which is 
obviously no true completely
across the board) they might "do the decent thing" and offer all holders 
of Licensed versions more recent
than 2.2.1 free licensed copies of 2.2.1 . . . .  :)

Actually, as my RR 4 licence works for 3.5 as well (!!!!), and as RR 4 
supposedly obviates all previous
versions I don't see why RunRev should object to licensed users having 
access to both all previous
downloads and licences for them.
