IK Multimedia has put up a page for SampleTank 3 with pricing.
 
http://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?item_id=4109
 
Upgrade $99.99
Crossgrade $149.99
Gregular version $249.99
 
So let the ranting begin.  this is just the 1st of many many many pages on SampleTank 3 to come I am sure.
 
For me, it's not worth the $99.99 and I will not be upgrading, plus if I wait a few months there will probably be one of those group buy deep discount etc sales that IK notoriously does.

There is something very anti-climatic about this announcement. It's about 4-5 years latr.

Just because that are taking pre-orders................  http://forum.cakewalk.com/Drumcore-4-the-saga-continues-m3050425.aspx
 
79 Euros, is that inclusive of VAT? IMHO its high enough to for it not to be a no brainer for those of us that already have extensive libraries of bread and butter sounds.

There's a point in time that passes by when you really shouldn't give any dates, but rather just come out with it.

Plus they rescinded on the initial promise of an additional discount for long time users. So it you bought sampletank for 29 dollars last month, you get the 99 upgrade. If you long suffered through dealing with IK abandonment and spent hundreds on the product, you get it for 99 too. They really fundamentally don't get it. Not surprising though.

The custom shop just went above a half million users though. I have noticed other software companies taking notice. In AD2 you can buy ad paks right from the GUI.....at least I'm pretty sure, correct me if I'm wrong. Will ST3 allow a user to buy sound libraries from the GUI?
 
I question why anyone who uses Kontakt would want it. What are the advantages over Kontakt? 
 
I have ST2 and most of the time I forget I have it.
