ps, do you realise how difficult it is to image search a suitable ass??

Make sure to delete your browsing history then unless you want people to see that you've been googling "suitable ass" ;)

Probably 100's of pics of me first?
(pretty sure that's what paulo thinks)

if a redemption code has an expiry date it will say so surely?

Hence the question. I don't know if it says so or not. I'm sure you know the rule about what happens to people who assume things. ;)

I would say the redemption code is not time locked but the initial 3rd party addons may be (i.e. AD2 3 ad paks etc. this time).
 
 
Once redeemed, I would imagine (hope) that the 3rd party addons could be redeemed whenever.
 
Just a guess.

Guessing and imagining is about the same as assuming tho innit ? Can you ask your new buddy Noel what gives ?

When you purchase from us that is correct since we deliver files immediately. When you purchase from retailers, it starts when you redeem the product. You'll get a redemption code and then instructions on how to install. So you won't be penalized for pre-ordering.

In theory then, when buying from a retailer, how long could someone hold on to the codes before activating and claiming their latest version and 12 months membership ? Is there a time limit or for example, could someone buy today, keep using what they have for three years and then get a super-duper update at that time with no further payment required?

From a retailer, we won't know their code until they redeem so that's when the clock starts. So in theory yes, you could do that. But I can't guarantee that three or ten years from now, we'll still offering Addictive Drums 2 so that might change. Why not just wait till you are ready to move to the next version and then purchase it then? I'm not suggesting you wait. I think I'd rather use the new features now and enjoy them but seems like a better option.

Seems to me my imagining was pretty close to the mark. 
 
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
 
WRT AD2 being redeemable for until forever I would say that is a question for XLN. Most redemption systems these days have an option for timeout. 
 
Again, I'd like to hope that since it was paid for the AD2 redemption would always be valid but it might fail in the CW store upon registering the SONAR purchase way on down the line.

Thanks for reply. My example is an extreme one and not necessarily exactly what I plan to do, I was just curious as to whether there was a time limit to redeem. AD2 is no good to me anyway as it won't install offline, so without that I'm not seeing enough over X3  to make me want to buy right now, but thought it might be an idea to lock in the price by buying now at the current offer price and then waiting until some point in the future when it seems better value (IMO) rather than just waiting a while without buying, but then being hit by the substantial price hike next year.
