New versions of older sheets

Just copied from today's Twitter feed:

" Soon, a new worksheet library titled ”Roark’s Formulas for Stress & Strain” will be available for purchase, and it’s built only for Prime 4.0."

We bought Roark's e-book long ago when Mathcad was still in single digit releases; it still opens in Mathcad 15.

Are we now expected to pay again for the same information, possibly with new errors?

You betcha!  No different than those of us who've paid annual maintenance getting the latest updates; Prime 4.0 sounds like it was worth the money spend (I haven't updated yet, haven't seen the advantage to do so).

There was previous discussion about Roark's here: MathCAD Prime 3.0 & Roark Toolkit, possible?

Apparently they don't translate well from Mathcad to Prime. Unfortunately...

That's right.
