Why doesn't Ableton sell Live 11 anymore??

Hi!

I have Live 10 and want to upgrade. My iMac is from 2014, so it's too old to run Live 12, but not Live 11.

When I looked at ableton.com å couple of months ago it was still possible to buy Live 11, but now it's removed.

Does anyone know why they made this decision? I'm now stuck with Live 10, even if I want to spend money on Live 11

This it what it says:
Buying older versions of Live
We only sell licenses for the current version of Live, not for previous versions e.g. Live 1-11.

If you need to buy a previous version of Live for compatibility with an older operating system or computer, you can look for a secondhand license to purchase from a third party.

It costs a lot of money and time to support an older version of a program that’s already been superseded.

I see, thank you for the reply. I found someone online who sells their licence now, so hopefully it works out.
