It's a guess for sure. As a DAW collector I'm starting to keep track of how frequent one needs to pay up to keep up to date. Cakewalk started doing that after about Sonar 3 and I started walking away despite the only license I didn't have in my collection was Sonar 6. The popular DAWs are the ones designed for dance music workflow. When I get a softsynth or presets I audition them in Bandlab. As for value and less cost to keep up to date is FL, Bandlab, and Reaper. Plus you can't beat the flexible licensing. Studio One is another one.
