You could always spend your life forever tweaking Linux hoping to get a stable functioning DAW out of that instead! 

 There's never a shortage of delusional Linux users who will tell it already exists and use onboard sound because it works for them. I always want to be a fly on the wall when the major DAW developers bust a gut from laughing when someone asks, "please make a Linux version".

That's a big +1 for my iLok License Manager protected plugins. Same for Waves!

They take a Windows update in stride, and keep on rockin!

 There's always hope MS will mess that up too.   I think I'd rather go back to buying an OS and getting services packs.  The DAW user is never 100% safe from the evoling OS in the Windows and Mac world.

Or maybe MS just doesn't know how to upgrade Windows without changing the PC hardware ID?

 Some truth there and this time they didn't mess up my home network requiring a roll back.   One system jumped from 1709 to 1809.

 Only XLN and recently Audiomodern Riffer had issues.  At least XLN you don't have to contact support. If it were other software it be days reauthorizing crap.  Software with no machine limits don't seem to be bothered.

Updated !! 

Does anyone know what the updates were?

Just a reminder that they haven't a clue how to protect your authorizations from Windows upgrades.

 What stuff are you talking about? Did you upload stuff?   I never un-register anything and just delete it. 

Fame comes first and often one has to wait for the fortune.

 Those old Mac Pro boxes are still upgradable.   There are some great comments why they switched.   I read an article somewhere where Apple might ditch Intel and roll with their own processors. Intel went back to being pricey so Apples prices is starting to hurt them.  A tricked out Mac Mini with no keyboard or monitor is $4K.  I could build 2 Windows rigs for that and use a MOTU AVB or Baby Face for both.

This is actually nice.   BTW the workstation is a nice poor man's sampler. I haven't used their stuff in in a long time.

BTW this is the non Kontakt player version.

Anyone have this?

That's too much for me.

Not until you see this,

 I need to open up Diamond again.  It was my first full orchestra for Gigastudio then I got the Kontakt upgrade.  Those at VI Control seem to be critical of KH libraries.

Anyone have this?

 If anyone hasn't noticed EP will beat all the prices when EW has a sale.   HWO Gold is on my wishlist.  It's $279 right now,

If anyone wants to share his code, I can trade it for my monthly voucher.

 Bad choice of words.   This is how deals get ruined.   This is where I would refer back to Mosely's post.    I think you can use your voucher on this deal.

 I think there is a code out there were this is always the price.   If you don't do a lot of advanced orchestra stuff something like this is great for quicker work flow, I will get this someday.

 I've got plenty from PA, Waves, IK, Melda's Super Duper EQ, Ozone Advance.   Too many to the point of passing on Fab Filters EQ.

 If we were discussing a Windows update being safe the answer is ?????????????

 I had the same issue with Audiomodern Riffer.

 I may go back to it. I guess you can run it on a different drive so it saves on the writes to a SSD.

Excuse me Sir/Madam but I am a plugin slut, not a plugin whore. Minor distinction but one none the less.
I respect your moral stand but disagree with your premise.

Thorn is a fine synth but like many on this particular forum I already have a glut of soft synths. 
No disrespect to Dmitry or Thorn but the only way I'll purchase a synth at this time is if it's priced in the truly no-brainer region.
So in this case PA/Dmitry have collected $19 from me that they would never have otherwise received.

I have no idea why this 'situation' occurred - be it intentional, as KK suggested it might, or otherwise.  But as it appears from comments posted on this thread it was not universally offered/distributed to Dmitry's user base.  If nothing else it has generated attention to the PA/Dmitry relationship.

One point that you don't take indignation over - - making people who've already purchased Thorn pay $19 just to obtain the rebranded PA version and perhaps be able to get future updates (assuming those don't require a fee).  The amount is IMHO a bit steep, I'd not be thrilled if I fell in that camp.

 

 I really don't understand the rant.  It's not like this code is shared either.

I have informed Dmitry about this situation.  I also purchased Tantra and incorrectly received the email to upgrade to Thorn v 1.2 for 19 bucks...

What did I do? The right thing. Nice job to all the whores taking advantage of this one man operation. And before anyone replies with the usual crap about it being the vendors fault, imagine yourself in his position and then repeat your justification for ‘robbing’ this man again. 

Oh, and please, by all means, instill your morals and values in your children.

Well done chaps!

Interesting 1st post.  Did anyone think maybe this wasn't a glitch?   Izotope made a mistake lat year by offering Ozone 8 elements to Advance for $150.   Thy decided to go with it.
