If it ever gets to the point where the fees don't make sense for my business, I'll just freeze my system and cruise as long as I can. I did that at pro tools 9 for quite some time.

Mine expires July 3, 2020 and I might buy another to extend to 2021 just in case the Ultimate Perpetual renewal goes up...which I’m sure it’s a matter of time before that happens.

Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
I was hoping that the new CEO would bring those morals but that doesn't seem to be the case, -or- Hernandez's ideas (and today's announcement does seem like his kind of thing) are just now getting to the table after being planned prior to the new CEO's entrance. The new guy could have put the kibosh on this, but didn't, so we'll have to consider it par for his course, too. It's a shame.
And to anyone who's suggested that Avid is attempting to usher people into the monthly plan, yes, you're right, and when the surge populates their coffer to an acceptable degree, they're apply more pressure to those who are sticking with their yearly plans. Ultimate's price didn't increase today, but it will as part of that effort, and probably within a year. |

Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
Someone let me know if I have this right. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Currently I have a PT SW perpetual license. $99 per year After July 1 that would be $199 If I Crossgrade to a Sub annual commit $99. Monthly $9.99 After a year does the crossgrade sub go to $299 Annual and $29.99 monthly? Or will it stay at $99 annual $9.99 monthly Thanks for clearing my confusion.

Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
I have been using protools for more than 20 years, I am seriously considering the definitive transition to Logic X .. I don't like these new avid policies very much, over time and even up to 1 month ago I spent a lot of money buying many plugins in AAX format only I can never use again, avid has lost a historical sin user ... why not leave everything as it was? I still have 2 years of plan on my avidaccount but at the end of this I won't renew anymore but I will definitely migrate to another daw

...and that's how end up to today. Board hasn't changed and they still think this is the plan to profitability (and, on paper, the dependable revenue on a quarterly basis looks good to investors so Avid has raised their stock value from being delisted to showing up somewhere with low figures.)

Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
Can we also talk about the fact that with the new pricing:
"three years update plan" equals "Full Perpetual price" |

Re: ProTools price adjustments from July 1st.
Yeah I saw that as well. I think they are going to kill any new perpetual licenses. Otherwise they are not gonna really be able to stick it us license holders. Asking for more than 599 for vanilla would be insanity and would hand competitors an even BIGGER stick to beat them with.
