Y'all would be a lot less stressed if you stopped tying the point releases to actual months.
 
 
... ok I get that Cake try to do it because of the monthly subscribers who would complain, it's not really a legit complaint. Did I just destroy my own straw man? Dang. I guess that is what it was for.

There are no monthly subscribers just folks who have bought Sonar on time payment instead of pay upfront which is the normal way retail purchase works.

Yes, monthly subscribers do exist. https://www.cakewalk.com/Products/SONAR/SONAR-FAQ

The term monthly is used multiple times. And some users choose to opt out of the monthly payments, thus ending their monthly subscription. I'm aware of the qualifications for ownership, but all of the above is also true.

It does make me wonder how payments now coorelate to actual releases now they are starting to miss the calendar month by a few days.

I'm hoping for at "Do what I meant to do button", the "automatic talentizer" and a pony!

I believe it's tied to the number of updates, hence 2017.09 instead of September 2017. But someone from Cakewalk would need to confirm.

I think Mudgel was referring to, or perhaps objecting to the term 'Subscribers' itself. It is seen as somewhat of a 'dirty word', and certain people do their best to distance Cakewalks/SONARs system/model as far away from a 'Subscription' model as possible for that reason.

Dang - it is already September 27 - ain't nobody wondering what's cooking for this month's possible release???



It's already Rocktober here, and, To be honest, I am. 

However, as always, I think this is a case of "it will be ready when it's ready..."
 
.........  and patience grasshopper...
