the insider program will continue running after release and years to come. you'll just after to keep updating builds regular and may run into issues sometimes
im guess yes. because if u stay as a insider u won't be staying on the rtm build for long

One thing that's really bugging me with W10 is Onedrive.
In 8.1 it was perfect. But having everything stored locally (Yes, I get that you can sync by folder, but it's still a step back) is going to ruin my S3 etc.

There must be some way to do a clean install though?
If you stay as an Insider running Insider Preview builds you will have an effectively free Windows 10 Pro for as long as the program runs (there's no hint of it ending any time soon). This has no link to any existing underlying license.
Each individual build will expire, but as an Insider you will keep getting new builds so you will stay active. If you drop out of the program you stop getting new builds, meaning the build you are on will eventually expire and you will have to seek out a proper license.
The conditions of the Insider program will remain as they are now. It's pre release software, zero warranty, stuff might not work, and the logging (which is nowhere near as draconian as people think it is) will remain. Basically if you agree to be a tester for Windows Updates you get to run test versions of Windows for free.
If you don't want this, and want just stable final proper Windows then you need a license.

There is, but only after you have upgraded in place first.

couldnt get Cortana to work with the US ISO, as the region was different from the language (ENG UK)

thanks, think that is the one i grabbed originally though (US ENG).
A quick Google search bought up this one, which might be worth a try?

AFAIK you need to have more than just the language as UK Eng, which is a bit of a faff, so seems easier just to grab the UK Eng ISO
"Why isn't Cortana in my region or language?
Cortana is available in these languages: French, Italian, German, Spanish, English (U.S.), English (U.K.), Mandarin
To use Cortana, all these settings must be set to the same language:
Languages (this is your device language)
Speech language (language pack must be installed)
Country or region
Note: If you change your region, you might not be able to shop at Store, or use things you've purchased, like memberships and subscriptions, games, movies, TV, and music."
