Vram entitlement for 5.0

I know this is prolly a stupid question, I know this licensing model is gone for 5.1 but is it also gone for 5.0?

First page reads that licensing is for both, 5.0 and 5.1

Yes, when 5.1 was released with no vRAM licensing that also became applicable to 5.0.

Can we get our money back for extra licenses/upgrades that VMware showed down our throat ? I doubt it but who knows, they might feel somewhat guilty about it and offer some concessions.

Best thing to do is contacting vmware really. Doubt they will though. We had similar discussions with them and they were less than helpful.
