I'm sure it's probably pretty easy to workaround this with a crack. If there are a lot of pissed of folks, there will be a workaround in no time, if there isn't already.

I don't know about forcing them to support old software. The only reason they even had CS 3 servers for authentication was pirates. I didn't know about these servers, but I never expected any support from them when the software was new, much less 13 years old. But what was the point in shutting down customers that owned the software. It was a cheap tactic to upsell. Adobe offered to replace my suite with CS 6 with a perpetual license for $689. If I just wanted Dreamweaver and Fireworks, the price was $389. So basically they are just thieves and a scumbag company.
