Re: Totally missed Waves going rent to own w/FLEX
I don't have the feeling that Waves is going to be subscription only anytime soon, I've heard people talking about something similar a number of years ago and that it didn't work, but I don't know if that's true. The Flex thing is better as you end up with the perpetual licenses but at this point I have most I need so I didn't care much when it came out.
BTW Christopher, check your PMs

Re: Totally missed Waves going rent to own w/FLEX
They've been doing this awhile, since Summer 2018. So it's not anything to be concerned about.
It's not really much of a deal when you consider the overall payment for so few plugins, even if you own them after 2 years. IMO. You can get a much better deal by waiting for the Bundle sales or the $29 sales. Have you guys noticed in the last couple weeks they've add $0.99 to everything. It use to be a straight price, $29, $49, etc... now all the plugins are $1 more (essentially) $29.99, $49.99 etc... I don't mind a sub if there is value in it. The PA sub is unmatched for value. Over 110 plugins for about $0.57 a day. That easily pays for itself. If Waves did a sub with similar pricing I'm sure it would take off as well. Though I don't need too much more from them since I have most of them.

I saw that, my first though was that they updated their store to make transactions in the order of $0.1 and $0.01 because before if you had a voucher for $28.50 the store wouldn't charge you the extra $0.50 (yes, I did that once ).

Re: Totally missed Waves going rent to own w/FLEX
I noticed that; guess they wanted to raise prices but going a whole dollar would scare people off. They're using what's called the 'marketing penny' to get people who would never spend or be on the fence about buying something for say $30 but would at $29.99. Also allows a company to say 'we have these wares for sale at under $30 - buy now'. Pure psychology, nothing more.
