^^^This^^^ The only thing I have actually sold, was a license to Kontakt, only because I had upgraded my Komplete Select to Komplete 12. So no regrets there.

@Reid Rosefelt, do you have to be logged into your Adobe account or have a license to access the Adobe CC sound effects? The link from your video goes to a 404, for me.

FreeDOS maybe?

Upgrade from 8-track is $217.56. That is getting into the more doable range.

I wanted to try that once, but I couldn't get my Mac in the microwave.

I agree with you on this one. I wanted to get into Bitwig because of Grid, but the price is just too steep for a year of support. I can justify never paying for WUP because Waves rarely updates their plugins and I don't feel compelled to pay for WUP (being on Windows). But while Bitwig does do meaningful upgrades frequently (I think), they are just too expensive for me over the long term.

In other words, no news at all.

Pretty sure I have a tape plugin to handle that.

Got the same email. Don't mind the delay, especially given the circumstances. Delayed gratification may be a factor here as well.

That was what I was told.

Or KVR. Actually, I came for the free booze.

Got mine already (I am in a closed test group). Side effect though is that I have this strange urge to donate the the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

I am with Grem on this too. The content was fine. It was the presentation that was off putting. Had you posted links to reliable, reputable reviews and evaluations rather than make us go hunting and sifting through dozens of YouTube videos to find those golden nuggets, you might have been taken more seriously. I had done that before you posted your comment on my search abilities and did not find the overwhelming evidence you were seeing. True, my search parameters were actually M1 verses AMD/Intel performance because of your assertion that AMD/Intel were in the stone age, or if not the stone age, then two or three years behind. To be honest, I was never really that interested in the 8GB/16GB question. I would never buy an 8 GB machine, period. My search told me that the M1 was a great processor especially in the power/performance ratio. But it also showed me that there was a lot of hype and controversy and I just was not ready to swallow the blue pill of the red pill yet. BTW, tacking lol onto something does not automatically turn something into a joke, especially if you have pissed people off already. Also being able to joke about someone especially in this community requires that you have already established a relationship with them, and so you know they are not going to take you seriously.

Bring back a full command line based OS. Forget this GUI BS.

The mouse travels further on a bigger screen? Why didn't I think of that.

Guess Amazon finally figured out that Canada is really a mythical land.

Note that it is $25 AUD.

Ouch!

The way I figure it, the money I save from buying something on sale can be rolled over to new purchases. I now have thousands of dollars banked up from Wave, and PA purchases alone, not to mention 8Dio and Rigid Audio.

Not to dredge up old memories, but didn't Apple try to sue someone over rounded corners? Hope Microsoft is not in trouble.

I thought 21H2 rather catchy.

Read that as Ma-cows, not Mac-ows. Visions of Farside dancing in my head.

What are they trying to fix by making it center aligned? More OS X like?

Borderline?

No. Conversation is good. Interaction is good. It is fine if you express a different opinion or even point to independent studies that back up your point. However, it is the manner in which you went about it with statements like "Leaves intel and amd in the StoneAge", your whole mean girls thing, questioning my ability to search, questioning Jim's expertise, calling everyone a bully. Your whole attitude has been "me against the world" and it is not healthy. To paraphrase you, "if you can't see that, then you have issues I can’t begin to address."
