“Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy” is attributed to Benjamin Franklin perhaps in error, but the thought remains a worthy sentiment nonetheless.

Don't listen to them. They are trying to save you money. Can you really trust people that want to save you money? They have another insidious agenda. They also want to save you the hassle and worry of having to renew your membership for Sonar each year. This is a conspiracy designed to make your life easer. Don't bite. Stay clear of this abominable offer if you don't value common sense.
I speak to you as one that did buy the lifetime offer. So I know from where I speak!!!!!!!!

I went there, I see no way to get a discount on my 199.00 from the CW store. AudioDeluxe shows the lifetime update price as 399.00. This is my first year and I'm paid up until like January. Am I missing something? I love to save money.

My cheapest option was through the CW store.....but I bought Platinum and then renewed once, so I got "the deal".

No. You'll probably get a code to enter at Cakewalk and then download it at My Products or use the Cakewalk Command Center

You folks will still be spending money-- this is just for the core program,, spiffy new features will still cost money. But at least you will now be able to only pay for ones you need.. much better system.

Yep. They want you to get stuck with a DAW for life. You will be just as miserable as those FL Studio users.

I can't imagine why I would ever want another DAW. I've used CW software since tape.
The thought of not being able to open old songs is not an option so cross grading is not for me.
As for extra goodies I have to pay for I can't imagine what I might want unless they can do or license believable virtual lyrics and midi to vocals.
I'd pay for that. Don't link realivox, I know.
