Here's a couple of other long overdue products...

Superior Drummer 2 - Original Release date:  06/2008  6 years since an upgrade...there have been "point" updates...
FAR TOO LONG.
 
Addictive Drums - Original Release date: also late 2007/early 2008.  6 years also...been updated to 1.5, but
that's still 6 years to get to a new version.  FAR TOO LONG.

Hat's off to FXpansion for the being the first Drum Sampler to "do the do" AND they did a fantastic job.

You can add AAS Tassman to the list, as it has been at 4 forever.

Didn't Addictive did go 64bit within the last two/three years?

Sony Acid- They added an element to the DAW world that has since been adapted and surpassed by...EVERYBODY.  It's kind of odd that the best programs to use acidized files is not acid.  The last upgrade was so meh that i skipped it.

I thought I saw an ad for a new version of ACID studio (10).
 
Voxengo Pristine Space/Pristine Space Light - have not even been updated to x64.

To be fair, they didn't just jump from v1 to the current, there have been somewhat consistent incremental updates that included x64 VST support, x64 AU support as well as AAX support. (all without charging)

My only pet peeve with them is online activation only...

I know there are still die hard DAW guys of the "no online" fambly.
 
I'm not one. (knocks on wooden head) I've  been online with my DAW since for years and years and have yet to have an issue. I'm especially wary of "surfing" the internests on the DAW, but TrueImage is my friend and I can always recover if I need to.

Yes Baps...but still hasn't made the 2.0 mark....it got to 1.5....that's a poor showing in 6 years of 
existence...

gustabo, very true..but still, you have to admit, 6 years without making a full version increment is
far too long...
