It's an annual license. You pay upfront and you use the license for 12 months, all upgrades included. It does not renew (yet), you have to purchase a new license after it expires. There is no cancelling - once you buy it, it's yours for 1 year. There are two ways to license it - locally and online. If you do it locally, you have a fixed number of licenses you can install, after which you have to return one and reinstall it elsewhere. There is a limit on how many times you can return a license, after which you're stuck with the machine you installed on. They recently started a more flexible way, that uses an online server for the licensing, where you can sign in to any machine and up to two machines simultaneously. If you sign in on a third, one of the other machines will lose the license. There is no limit to how many times you can sign in and move your license around this way. Indie files are not usable on the pro (FX) version. You can open files from FX in Indie, but not vice-versa. You can't even copy nodes from Indie into FX. The FX session will downgrade to Indie if you attempt to do so.
