I was dead set against the 'wup your arse' plan, just on principal alone.
The only reason I even considered it at all, was when they FINALLY went to 64 Bit with Version 9.
All my Waves plugs were still current, except just the Musician's 2 Bundle that was out by about a month or so, so I bit the bullet and paid a mere $18 or so to renew it, since my 2 DAWs, most of my plugins & my custom built rig are all 64 Bit now.
My understanding, was that the $200 cap was a TOTAL wup fee per year, regardless of how many plugs you had.
Raising that to $300 is bad enough, what with so many countless other competitors sharing or even stealing the market now.
But if it's $300 per plug or bundle, I think that may cost much more than it will pay off for them.
Lots & lots of other options out there now for plugins, with seemingly more & more coming all the time.
