Malwarebytes Question about Updates

[ManOfArc]

(I thought Id get a less biased answer here than over at Malware Bytes)

If I continue to use an older "program version" of MB, but keep the database updated, am I any less secure than using their newest interface?
i.e. I'm using a version 2.0.2 of the program interface and they are up to 3.6.1 now.

I know it's free and easy to just update, but I have my reasons for wanting to stay with the older interface.

You can read through their release history, and see what changed.

v2.0.2 is from May 2014


A lot of feature additions, and quite a few actual bug fixes since then.

Thanks.
I wonder which version they discontinued the multiple devices per one lifetime license? Had to be somewhere around version 3.
I used to have as many machines as I wanted (all activated on the premium license) way back when I bought the license for a mere $25. Now it says I am only entitled to a single device on my lifetime license. I guess they never heard of 'grand-fathering in'.
