Re: Perpetual Upgrade offer
Quote:
One's Perpetual license is swapped/surrendered (lost!) with this "Crossgrade" offer: "***Crossgrade for registered owners of Pro Tools Perpetual This crossgrade is for owners of Pro Tools Perpetual (especially where the Support/Upgrade plan has expired). With this crossgrade you receive a 2-year subscription of Pro Tools including AVID's Support and Updates plan. For the duration of two years you have access to support directly from AVID, and will be able to upgrade to the latest versions via download as soon as they are released." https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/ar...ate-Crossgrade

Re: Perpetual Upgrade offer
Yes, I'm sorry unkJE. I failed to notice. That explains the price.
But again, confusion. Easy to get confused. One wonders if it's a strategy or just bad work.

Re: Perpetual Upgrade offer
I feel it’s Avid’s responsibility to insist that Resellers mention the Crossgrade Terms & Conditions in their ads.
History: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=C...client=gws-wiz Otherwise, as Tom Waits noted: 'The large print giveth and the small print taketh away.'

Re: Perpetual Upgrade offer
I think the answer is easy..If you can still buy it on resellers website (sweetwater etc..) or Avid then you're good.

Re: Perpetual Upgrade offer
That's what's known as a 'reinstatement' (actually Avid recently begun referring to it as an 'update'), where you pay to get current with your perpetual w/expired update/support plan. And, in practice you did not surrender v12 because you can run all versions back to 12 with a perpetual license. Not so with a subscription.
