Would it be a violation of forum rules to mention where I am purchasing my (upgrade) boxed copy of X2?
I’m not connected with the company (although I have bought from them before), I just thought that sharing the information might help out some other British buyers but I don’t want to risk being banned if it is viewed as advertising or something prohibited.
If someone official can confirm it’s ok, I’d be grateful.
Thanks!
 
Edit: As others have now posted the link, I thought I'd move it up to the first post (I've ordered a boxed copy for less than the download would have cost me):

Not sure, but I sure would appreciate it if you could PM the info. I'm looking for a place to buy the upgrade (boxed version) in UK 


 Thanks!

You can say where you got it from. On their own site they tell you to freely use 'retailers worldwide while supplies last.' They supply the stores who then sell it on at their own price.

Just had a look at two of the biggest on-line retailers Digital Village and Dolphin Music and they are advertising all the full X2 versions, but not the upgrade.

ETcetera do the boxed stuff usually http://www.etcetera.co.uk...?manu=Cakewalk&class=1

Didn't they used to be the offical distributer for Cakewalk in the UK, may they still are?

Certainly, they always have the boxed stuff and upgrades. Usually more options than other retailers.

It was etcetera I was going to mention, I've used them in the past and they're selling the boxed upgrades to X2.
 
I'm not sure who else is selling upgrades in the UK and while I didn't have a problem downloading X1 (maybe I was lucky, I know some people have had problems with downloads), getting a boxed copy for less than the download sounds good to me.

I think a few of us went for the Strings lib offer. I'd have liked the box, but well £25.. is a bit too much , say £12-18 would have changed my mind.

UK is pretty good download wise, well assuming you have a decent tarriff as well. They all want our custom currently , so won't be too quick to complain. unlike the old days when BT "anytime" didn't mean that

Yes, I want the DSF strings too.  A physical upgrade before 31 October qualifies:

I can't wait for FTTC to reach me (hopefully this year), I find my current ISP disappointing of late.
