You get Addictive Drums.

meh.  I have most of Toontrack's stuff.  I doubt I could care less about AD.

Comping is different.
 
Some say better, others say not so.
 
Craig Anderton says you need to learn the new method(s) and not assume that it is the same as before.
 

Lucy...splain please.

Integration with Gobbler (online backup)
 

automatic online backup...so far I have NEVER been satisified with any automatic backups.  and even if it really WOW'd me, I'm sure I'd have to pay extra for more than what...5G of storage? 
 
meh.

I wasn't really happy with x2, I tried the x3 demo and decided to buy it because it works much better on my system.
I really like the fly-out eq and siince i didn't have a lot of vst's, the nomad vst's are most welcome. Try before you buy, I would say. Also it was really cheap to upgrade ; )

not sure what "fly out EQ" is but I could be interested in that if it's something I think it might be.  I don't care for paying for a bunch of new VST's, FX or instruments.  I have a lot. 
 
Try before I buy is not a bad piece of advice, tho!

I'm also with X2 and am thinking of getting this upgrade.......the plugins + the overall stability of X3 is my driving force. I think it's worth the $99 fee and may not need to upgrade for awhile (X4? ). 
I suppose all I need now is a Soundcloud account.

But I'm not interested in paying cakewalk for plugins anymore unless I specifically want them.  paying $99 for an upgrade just to get a bunch of plugins is not appealing to me.
 
stability - I've not had an issue with since 8.5.

$100 is two date nights?
 
Software lasts forever.
(forever=until next version)

I thought Beagles were already loyal--especially if you have becan.  

What is this Loyal Tea you speak of and how can I get sum?

Yeah, if you have most of Toontrack and/or BFD then AD won't float your boat (IMHO of course).
The "flyout EQ" is one of those things that is not worth the upgrade on their own, but combine with other features to make the whole worthwhile.

Sorry, Beagle.  I probably knew it, but I forgot.  I wasn't thinking about loyalty to Cake.  I was thinking about your canine brethren.  Can we unpush that button?
