Starship Krupa Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Larry, I appreciate and have benefited from the effort you put into posting all the deals you do, and I am not suggesting you provide more information to save me the negligible trouble of typing my name and email address into a form, but. There is more than one website out there that is or was offering a "free" plug-in that I have an account on for the sole purpose of making it to their download page only to find out that I needed to own something else in order to get it or use it. It does amaze me how coy companies can be about this. The front page of the site: "This week! Free sampled Optigon!" I create an account, they send me a confirmation email, I go to the page for the "free" Optigon, read about how meticulously they sampled it, cool, cool, then click on the Download button and it takes me to another page that finally mentions that it's a Kontakt instrument or asks me to put in the serial number for my hardware product. And since I don't own Kontakt and use hopelessly outdated PreSonae, no Kontakt instruments or Plugin Collectives for me. Just an account on their server that will never be used for anything, because I opted out of all communication. "Be Sure To Drink Your Ovaltine" ? I'm not whining, when I see a post "free instrument," and it doesn't mention the K-word I think of Let's Make A Deal and how people would open a door and it might be a brand new car or it might be something....less desirable. So it's like throwing the dice. Will it be a VSTi or a sample set or even something that's ready to go with SampleTank or Kontakt Player? Hurrah! Or will it be a Kontakt instrument? Wah wah wahhhhh. So I have to do a bit of sifting to get my free toys, so what? All in good fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
