No.
This has been raised many times following the release of other products.
You do get free updates within a version
e.g. VideoStudio 10.001 to VideoStudio 10.002
You do not get a free upgrade to a new version
e.g. VideoStudio 10 to VideoStudio 11

The question of whether or not this is the best way to conduct business has also been raised many times and their are arguments for and against providing a free upgrade. Ultimately is is the decision of the software company to choose the path they wish to adopt and whichever way they do they are in a no win situation.

There is no point in going over old ground again and so I shall lock this thread.
