Leo, it would be starting with TMS5. I don't, currently, use Dolby TMS so I don't have direct user experience but I did hear that the ICMP will be one of the, if not the first of the 3rd party server integrations.
I don't know if any TMS (aside from Show Manager, which isn't so much of a TMS as joining independent servers together) that doesn't have some sort of annual fee. I don't doubt that there are some out there though. With a TMS, the software IS the product so I can see charging some sort of fee in order to maintain/update it. That said, if one doesn't want to upgrade (ever), there shouldn't need to be an annual fee. But, if you do want to upgrade, you should have to buy the next version as a new customer too. Something has to cover the software costs to develop.
