Will we be forced to use the same name and email address in both forum and store accounts? I sincerely hope not.



You will be forced to use the same login name so you would login with 'yorolpal'. You will not however be required to use the same email address so you can use a separate email for forum notifications etc.

This is great news, and the announcement itself is a classic.
 
This also explains the last expense report of $4,338 for hamster food.


$4338.00 for hamster food? I hope I don't meet up with that gang in a dark alley. They gotta be bulked up after eating all that.

Excellent news. Big step forward!! And no doubt X4 will be taking full advantage of this.

Good luck with the migration process.

Yes!! Pretty soon there will be one Cakewalk site instead of three different ones.
 
Good luck with the migration process.

 
Seeing the hell Harmony Central went through trying to make single sign-on happen (which was finally resolved on their fourth platform change), I'll add my "good luck" to yours.

Well, most of it is going to one guy who's a little overweight...
 
Eventually, I'm going to have to figure out how to get my out-of-date and completely inaccessible email address (which was used to validate ownership of my Cakewalk products) migrated to a newer one.  The domain just expired a couple of months ago after having it for about 15 years...

Using a mix of magic, wizardry, and a dedicated hamster-powered migration tool, all of your Cakewalk Store downloads, purchase history and serial numbers should appear in your new consolidated Cakewalk account.
 
When is this happening?
 
  • Soon™ we will update the store to use the new Cakewalk accounts.
 Let us know! While we’re doing our best to merge duplicate records, our hamsters can’t always keep up and sometimes we miss something. 
 

 
I have read the document several times. I get it now... it's all starting to come true as predicted. Observe "Soon" is trademarked but hamster is not. I did some research and came up with this.
 
"Jeg har en Grey alien I bur, som en liten hamster"
... Translates to "I have a Grey Alien in a cage, like a little hamster".
 
...Yup the alien grey technology is here folks...

With good humor almost anything can be tolerated. We shall see what we will see on Monday.

Thanks for the heads up. I made a copy of my store account page, just in case.
