"So it is "anti-social" that I want to have enough revenue that the company does not go bankrupt?"

No, of course not, but you don't have to behave in the described manner to generate that revenue. Companies that do release old software for free wouldn't do it if they thought it damaged their business, would they?

"So, when I come out with my new and improved product, I should, instead of selling it, let everyone have my previous product for free???"

No, you sell your new product. If it really is improved people who own the existing product will upgrade.

"You are waaaay off."

I don't agree.
