What does CbB Activations end 8/1/2025 mean for me?

[Roy Slough]

I am getting this message when I start Cakewalk by Bandlab. Will this stop me using CbB after this date?
I do not really understand what is meant by activations, it is already activated or does it require repeat activations after a period of time?

Also can someone confirm this is 1st August 2025 (in UK this date would be 8th January 2025)

Thanks

I'm glad I have all my projects saved as Midi files and Stems already. I'll see how this Free tier version goes now my Membership has expired. I was going to renew it but it was $159. Seems only new members get the discounts. I friggin hate all this.  Not happy. Time to move on I guess. 

But I found out the free version is not a Forever deal. Bandlab has said this in so many words on reddit.
