Common business model, and this development would not surprise me.
I know it's common but it borders on fraud, years ago I purchased lifetime license from a software company which included everything they produced at that time. I don't use it anymore and I certainly got my money out of it. Since then what they have done is stopped updating some products and created new ones with very similar uses that have a different name.
If it's something new instead of updating the core product where it should be they create a separate product as add on.

If that's your concern, they allow you to buy 1-year business licenses through them directly for personal use (you don't have to be a business). You renew on a yearly basis until you aren't satisfied with the product anymore (or until it is discontinued).
I don't think anything more needs to be said on the subject.
Seems to get not so good reviews from what I can see.
It might be related to the old software, whihc had issues, they went long way from original antivirus... I had a malwarebytes, zone alarm and Norton (worst by far). Stopzilla detects and stops much more intrusions.
Just my 0.02 cents
