I'm glad it worked for you. I wrote to NI and they said I didn't qualify...who knows. I certainly don't need it anyway.

Well I tried again and now I qualify. I was thinking of getting S-Gear...now I guess I have more to think about. I've never been to impressed with my GR4 (Sonar version), but $49.99 is a very good price.
 
(EDIT)
I went to look again and the $49.99 upgrade price is a option now, (It wasn't yesterday) but underneath it says I have none of the qualifying products.

For whatever it's worth, I had the discount on the upgrade to GR5 because I was a registered user of the LE version which came with Studio One. So in theory, you SHOULD qualify for it.

You would think. I've e-mailed them again for clarification. I do believe I will put that $49 towards my S-gear fund either way.

S-Gear gets my vote for actual amp sound.
 
For out-of-this world/hit-a-note-and-create-an-entire-soundtrack-for-a-David-Lynch-movie type of thing, Guitar Rig is extraordinary.

For $49 I would have to consider GR5. It's just a great deal, but this (my non-qualifying) problem may help me keep on track with my S-Gear plan. It's getting harder for me to justify buying things. I'm really in pretty good shape with software.
