For whatever reason, I remember thinking it might be nice to try to move to VB.Net many years ago, but part of what turned me off was the thought that I could no longer "own" the development program the way I owned VS6, but instead had to subscribe to it.

Perhaps I was wrong then.  It appears that now this is not the case.
