Dave, isn't this only true if you had QT Pro 5 or 6  (or lower) and  
upgrade to 7.1? It has always been the case that non-point upgrades  
have required a new licence, I don't think this point upgrade changes  
that, does it? This raises the important question of whether Apple  
have an obligation to provide security fixes for older versions of  
the Pro software (I think they should) and also what constitutes a  
reasonable licence cost for Quicktime Pro but it doesn't appear to be  
an issue prompted by this point release.

All the best

Graham
