Cheese is Satan's smegma.

For you who don’t know. Cakewalk is free because of you are buying the membership at the BandLab community. You are "selling your soul" to be a part of that community.

 Only if you sign up via facebook ! ;)

I don’t think that is a bad deal. And if they are to raise the price at some point in time, I will pay for Cakewalk as long as it is decent priced. And I see their community as much better than Facebook/Twitter/YouTube.

I consider myself to be in the red zone of the paranoid meter, but am totally chilled out with the BandLab community. To me it looks like the greatest thing since mp3.com, and I feel exited to be taking part in it.
 
I'm slightly nervous about the radical change in power relationship with this free thang ... but that's life ... I think it may be viewed as a positive thing to have an owner, which seems to have a hands on approach and a vision. I wonder if Sonars problem's may stem from the lack of active ownership and direction, in combination with making the paradigm shift from MIDI based DAW, to Audio/Sample/Loop a bit late. I guess it is understandable, I doubt loop based creations had a high star on the forum back in those days. I see some here still have problems with it.

Sharke I'll try not to mention cheese. Uh oh I said it. Sorry. Yum.....
 
No matter how you cut it , some of this has seemed to be full of holes. iRelevant has some of the same reservations.
It's ok to be chilled out. Is that a sin?

The great thing abut souls is that you get to sell it again, and again, and again. I'm not sure what happens when all those buyers find out abut each other.

Lifetime updates cost me $99 for about 18 months with bug fixes and new stuff every month. That was cheaper and much better bug fixes and new features than it was when it was a new version every year.

That's how I feel. I was lucky enough t be offered the same 99 deal. I kind of get what those wh paid a bit mre feel, but in the grand scheme of things, I think they still got a good return, just not what they expected to get.

That's what I like about you kamikaze,  you always see the silver lining.
