SONAR Platinum Membership valid through ∞

I just buy lifetime upgrades and i like it :)
 
Now my Account page says SONAR Platinum Membership valid through ∞.
 
My Sonar Platinum DAW however says under Help menu and About Sonar -> Membership: Valid through 25.12.2037
 
I think it mean 21 years from now on.
 
But my big question is what happens after 25.12.2037?
 

 
Maybe my membership expired? ∞=25.12.2037 or not.
 
I just thinking and i think i have a lot of time to think it if i just want to, 21 years. 
 
Perhaps is better just start to do some Music. No hurry no worry.
 
Thank you Cakewalk for great deal.

    A revised analysis of the Mayan calendar using the latest revision of the principles of gematria has placed the end of time on Christmas day 2037. In addition to the expiration of your Sonar forever membership, you should note that there are only 7842 shopping days until final Xmass.

    They'll do like the Mayans did, and just release a new calendar.

    It means Cakewalk's subscription database uses signed 32-bit integers to store dates.
     
    Remember the Y2K bug? The one programmers (including me) scrambled to fix before it was triggered? Well, meet the Y2.038K bug.

    In other words, as far as the system is concerned time ends not long after the year 2037 does. (Before then, I'm sure Cakewalk's DB admins will switch to a bigger data type and disaster will be averted, same as we did sixteen-plus years ago).
     
    Alternatively,

     One day after, millions of people will queue up to return retro-style simulated vinyl copies of "Justin Bieber Sings Perry Como's Greatest Hits" — given to them the day before by friends who "heard you like music" — to their local WalTargostco kiosks for a refund.

    That makes sense to me. Thanks Meffy.
     
    And I like also those Maya theories :)
