Unlikely. If someone is willing to pay big $$ he is usually is seriously
interested in support. And the others wouldn't give money anyways. I doubt ACT 
would lose much sales if at all when they were a bit more open with their 
releases. The advantage ACT would receive instead is more testing
which gives better software which translates into paying customer 
satisfaction which generates more money in the long run.
