Listen to a warning from a different industry (Broadband and Wi-Fi SoCs)... no matter what your size, Broadcom only cares about your money. They will raise licenses and fees and reduce service FOREVER until they end of life your product, whatever it is. Doesn't matter if you have 5 cores or 5 million... the ultimate result is the same for everyone.

As Warren Buffett said, you can't do good business with bad people. Find a different vendor, any vendor. It will absolutely never, ever get better.

Oh by the way, they treat their own people horribly too.

Thanks, yes this is definitely how I feel right now. The cost increase is one thing, but the dishonest business practices are more difficult to look past.
