Let me explain:
 
Before X3, I never owned Melodyne.  I got the X3 upgrade for $149.  From that, I got an offer from Melodyne to get Editor for $149.  That's a total of $298.
 
Before I upgraded to X3, buying Melodyne Editor direct from Melodyne would have cost me $399 - That means that I got Melodyne Editor for $100 less than retail and X3 was effectively free!
 
Thanks Cakewalk and Melodyne!

That might work well if your primary goal was to get Melodyne.

I love logical well reasoned conclusions. Congratulations on an excellent purchase.

For some it's a topsy turvy world.

That sounds like a good deal.
 
Let's complain about it....

It'll be the people who see a sale on something they already own. Now they want a discount...

I want a discount. Short of going to WalMart don't think I'm gonna get one though. No worries: I hear tell there is a free upgrade to X3b right around the corner.
 
Regards,

I zigged when I should have zagged on this one lol  . I already own full versions of Addictive Drums, Nomad, Melodyne and Lounge Lizard. 
 
They must have made this upgrade just to piss me off :)

 

lol wormser!
 
 

Yep, for those of us who get plug-ins via SONAR updates *alone*, X2 and X3 plug-ins compensated well for the upgrade "cost."
 
Sorry about that wormser! If you have other really awesome plug-ins... shout them out for X4
