Re: Superior Drummer 3 Upgrade Discontinued?!

[PlatypusNL]

erhm… Toontrack states that SD2 will stop working on numerous platforms!

WHY NOW? WHY UPGRADE?
The Superior Drummer 3 Upgrade will be discontinued since Superior Drummer 2 no longer is supported, updated or available for purchase (which in effect means it will become obsolete and cease to work on numerous platforms at some point in time).

It has to do with:
“Give us $200 by the end of the year, or you’re done!”

Simply put: that is Extortion!

Can you please show me where that line has been communicated?

AFAIK no one is pointing a gun at you or threatening you that bad things will happen to you unless you give Toontrack money.
You were given an 8 months heads-up that the discounted upgrade offer will end.
You are free to take up on that offer or pass.
I own a lot of software and other products that from time to time entitle me to get time-limited special/discounted offers. To say that each of those are criminal acts that “force” me to pay, is simply absurd, IMHO. Either I take an offer or I deem it not worth investing in for the moment.

Your current Toontrack software will not stop working when that offer ends. Your products that you own will still work. You are not being forced to buy something.

Just my personal $0.02.

John
