This is one reason I believe 3.x license owners should have an option to pay < $50 to download an updated 3.8.x most current version as I believe many more would pay for that then they would the $209 to upgrade, granted it is -40 off a full license but to me they should only be paying that $40 difference only.
Edit: Although to be fair... everyone must realize that you cannot and most hosts will not keep you on php5.2/5.3 forever, in fact sometimes they update your php to a newer version because of security risks in older outdated versions so while you might be able to retain your same php and vBulletin version for quite a while, it will most certainly not be forever. So with all that said, eventually your php will need to be updated and in-turn your forum patched (3.x series) or upgraded to a newer version such as vBulletin 4.x or 5.x.

I like your thinking on this matter.
I ask a while ago if there would be a cost for 3.8.8 or if it would be given to all license holders that did not want to upgrade to vb 4 or vb54, I was told "Not sure at this time".
