So your old license for the original version in now part of your current license. Why should you be able to sell that?

abacab Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I believe that is a fairly common software industry practice. No surprises here... I agree that if one benefits from upgrade pricing, that there should be no expectation of un-linking the previous product that the upgrade price was based upon. As it should be, and totally fair to the software publisher. You are free to disagree, but it is what it is. ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is actually no benefit.. imo newly owned price during Black Friday or any other discounted days comes to same as when we keep upgrading. Infact even lesser. Example over the years how I upgraded - arp2600 - v collection 4 - v7- v8 40-65-99-149 $ - total 353$ Today new customers get v8 for 249$ So eventually will end up paying more for than new customers , at some point old version has to be sold to make it equal. I’m glad the bug existed and got rid of arp2600 and v4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I think I’ll get the v8 upgrade for $99. Got v4 back in the day for $69 crossgrade. In the end, that’s $6 per instrument. Not too shabby. Any third party upgrade offers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't sell the software without a license, so if you decide to sell the software you must include your license and the updates you bought with it. You actually don't own the software, what you own is the license. It's like that for all software not just music.
