Highway robbery!

Why? You never buy the software anyway. You are only buying the license
when you buy a retail box in the store. It has always been that way.

Exactly. Talk about defending the indefensible!

If there is robbery, it is the purchaser robbing him/her self.
No one forces anyone to upgrade, everyone has a choice.

Since Windows XP will probably be supported for several more years, there is
no need to upgrade just because a new OS is available.
Since it is a choice, there can be no "Highway robbery".
Everyone has a right to exercise their choice regardless what you say.
