They cut its life short and cancelled promised updates. As a user of windows 8. I am not happy. Windows 10 has to be a free upgrade.

They did not. Dont spread FUD. Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 will be supported for a long time.

With the usual security and bug fixes. Nothing else, just like VISTA was supported for "a long time". UI changes? Forget it. Want the start menu back? Resizable metro apps? Get Windows 10

Exactly like every other release of Windows. Some things make it and something get pushed to later versions and something disappear all together.

So my original post was not "FUD". Thank you.

No they havent cut its life short or cancelled promised updates.
