With version 8 of MOLCAS we change the licensing policy. You purchase a time limited license for 1 year or 3 years. This license entitles you to get all updates within this time period, including major releases.
Update (161212) : From January 2017 we plan to change our prices and licenses. Later in 2017 large part of the Molcas code will be released under LGPL license under the name openMolcas. Purchasing a license for Molcas, a user will get the source of openMolcas, extra tools and utilities, precompiled binaries for common platforms, as well as support for the time of the validity of the license.
We do not change the license fee, but discontinue 'Binary only' option, as well as a special license for academic groups in Nordic countries.
