>I'm not a lawyer. As far as I know everything in an MSDN subscription is a "full" license for development and testing . That means the license is different than a typical OS license but the same as a typical developer tool license. The subscription is for a year but you can use the licenses indefinitely - if your subscription runs out you just won't get copies of anything new.

Available downloads depend on the subscription level but as far as I know if you get Visual Studio you get all verstions of it. In other words if you have the Library only or OS-level subscription you don't get VS, but if you have a higher-level subscription you do.

Thank you, Cindy. I am about to upgrade my little ol' MSDN library-only subscription to either Professional or above, and didn't want to make any assumptions < g >.
