no ideas of numbers but $12 times 3000 upgrades wouldn't be chump change.
You are exaggerating and not being fair to the the Har-bal guys.
I paid 99 dollars for the very first version.
Then I paid about 30 dollars for an upgrade that was well worth it.
Then I paid 12 dollars for the latest update.
Done.
That said, this software is not for everyone. It is for those of us that want to have every available option for mastering and/or repairing audio tracks. You have to know what you want to do to the track to use the software. It does not magically fix your track. It is a very good tool to have when you know what your track needs.
