3 reasons:

1.- Security. Once they drop a version of any of their product, they simply stop working on updating that product, which means it will later turn unstable and unreliable.

2.- (a Very important one, for them) Confort. If they allow you to keep using an old version. They will be forced to maintain and support 2 different versions of one product, when they could simply let you use one. The same happened with their Windows brand. They don't offer any kind of support to the Windows 9x series nowadays.

3.- (The VERY IMPORTANT reason for them) Finances. Windows Live Wave is thinked of service providing as an earning medium. And having you using the brand new Windows Live Wave products guarantees them a safe income from their sponsors. If you think about it, several addons removed the commercial add Windows Live Messenger had at this bottom, which is a "No, no, man!" from Microsoft!

That's why.

Nope 8.5 doesn't work :/



Its a joke tbh :/
But why aren't they forcing 8.5 users to update?

Hahaha! you're really frustrated huh (because of the joke you mention xD).

Cause 8.5 is to the moment a stable version. Since 2009 is a brand new version they will take some time to "adjust" several things, before dropping 8.5 deffinitively (which I tell you for sure... Will happen )

get the 8.5 installer from http://mess.be

I'f I'm not mistaken they provide the Messenger 8.5 msi

I signed in on 8.5 this morning without any hassles what so ever!

Hmph.
This update better hurry up cse i'ma go crazy.
And yeah I am
