If you upgrade the basic program to version 2017, you will still be able to use all your existing MIDI styles and whatever RealTracks you have from that first year of them, plus any that might be supplied with the basic program now. Then you can buy individual RealTracks to taste (although I think the audiophile version is all or nothing). The reverse is not true; the newer RealTracks would not work in the earlier version 2008.
