One could expect the following from a good software manufacturer:

* Creating bugfixes for releases made before the release reaches end of
sales/end of support, which should be at least 2-3 years after its initial
release.
* Making patches easily accessible for the general public, or at least for
those who have legally obtained a copy of the product. One should not need
a software update contract to get bugs fixed in the product one has
purchased. Its not WinZip you are seeling.
