What do we get for $200 a year?

How many major fixes, improvements etc. are we guarantied per year. Aside from phone support, What am I guarantied for my thousand dollars in the next five years?

Are you serious?  Are you expecting any of the Bakers to know what they'll be coding 2, 3 or 4 years from now?
 
During the next 12 months you'll be getting all the updates which when put together in a single package would have been call X5 next year.  You're getting it all in advance as each bit is finished.  You'll also be getting additional content.

Of course not. I'm just trying to get my posts up A LITTLE. It's lame to have so little posts since 2009. I could have posted something intelligent but then I wouldn't have gotten, (ARE YOU SERIOUS?). Things have been a bit tense around here. I think I'll go check my crystal ball to see who will win the superbowl. I think this post belongs in the coffee house. Or in the future.

If you like you can reply to this a few times to give the genuine trolls something to gripe about,  then we can move it to the coffee house.

Way ahead of you. The Bakers have the number one DAW in the world that has every feature that can be imagined and is rock solid.  In the X3035 version all you have to do is speak your commands. We don't have fingers in 3035.

This is a legitimite & pertinent question, especially for those of us "skippers". I would also appreciate more information concerning the "additional content" reference, trolls notwithstanding of course. ;-)

I can't give away anymore. It will disrupt the universe. Besides, the Bakers told me that if I shut up I will get Sonar for half price up to X3035. I can't pass up that deal.

So... I'm still kinda in the dark.... but.... if I understand it, Sonar is going to some type of subscription basis where you pay $200 a year and get the updates automatically......
As opposed to spending the full price of the standalone Sonar.... at $300+  ( I think that's right since I have never bought the flagship Sonar.....)  If you are the kind of person who has to have the newest version every year..... I'm thinking the $200/yr deal rocks.... if that's what you need.
 
I'm still running X1 essentials so I probably won't be signing up any time soon.

I'm still on X1d Expanded (has all I need). Also of note is that the monthly payment amount is variable & based on the version you currently have a license for. Could be as high as $49.99 though.

Before spending all that money on cybernetic replacements, you might be interested in knowing that by 2032 the only form of music anywhere in the world is nothing more than fart noises. By 2035, the actual sounds were replaced with numbered references to popular gaseous emissions. In 2037, Taylor Swift released her chart topping album, "23" with sales of more than 1,000 copies world wide. Such sales figures would never be seen ever again. By 2039, the RIAA announced that they have finally completed the process of successfully prosecuting 100% of the human race in an effort to combat piracy. With the entire species locked safely away, thousands of lawyers pulled off their faces and declared their mission complete. 
 
Things went downhill for a while after that.

The only thing I don't quite understand is the oft-touted "Special Surprise".
 
Is it coming, or have I already got it?
 
If it came with Platypus, then I'm still none the wiser as to what I've got.
 
Maybe it's 'bugger all'. That would certainly count as a surprise.....
 
But not a 'nice' surprise. And certainly not very 'special'.
 
Any ideas anyone?

The future of the DAW is an application that composes original music, listens to it internally, rates it as a megahit, establishes a skyrocketing career for itself, begins to lose traction as it faces competition from younger, more attractive and less cerebral updates in style plugins, falls off the charts and ends up outputting a duet with Tony Bennett via a 98,000 speaker surround system.

Someone remind me to necropost here in 2020.

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

My problem is that every time I say to myself, that's it, I have everything I need in Sonar, they go and put out something that makes me go.....I could really use that feature.

I am still waiting on some sort of talent plug in....that will surely entice me to sign up.
