It means PT Barnum's classic quote about suckers is still very much true

When I saw I MPC essentials I knew it was a sucker offering. As a freebiebie included with Akai's latest pad controller it is basic at best and useless to anyone who actually owns a DAW. The idea of paying for it amuses me.

There is value in the AIR Instruments and in
the FabFilter offerings ...but all in all ...meh...
If you were in the market for some of these programs
and it made it "less" expensive to go this route...maybe...

K9 and K9U are plethora of wonderful things...and as packages
go..they're a steal if you can use all those toys...

Stutter Edit cost $249. That's half the asking price. If you only found a handful of stuff you really liked in there it'd be more than worth the asking price. Especially considering that the average plugin is about $99 on SALE nowadays.

I suppose if there was $501 worth of stuff you actually wanted it would be worth it, but keep in mind there is a difference between wanting a product and just taking it because it's included in a bundle. I doubt there are many people in this forum that would purchase Stutter Edit at full retail price but may use it if it was given to them.  I would say most of the software falls in the category of products most of us would only buy if on sale.  Some are in the category of could not pay me to use.  I'm sure someone will find value in this.
