I have Ultimate 8 plus nearly all the "New in Ultimate 9" except:
 
That new set of mix tools: RC 48, RC 24, VARI COMP, ENHANCED EQ, PASSIVE EQ, DRIVER (obviously not a must have for me)
The Rick (got Orange Tree already)
Monark, Scanner XT, Damage, Drumlab, Battery 4 (nothing seems a must have for me)
 
$325 is too high to get those "meh for me" additional items. Seems I'd pay more if I bought all those on 50% off but $325 is still out of my budget right now. Like has been said, I'll probably jump on Ultimate 10 (on its next 50% off go round) 
 
That said, this is a great sale IMO.

Bapu - Are you sure it's that much? You want the update. Mine has Price: 199,50 € - so yours may be $199.50?
 
I don't see the US price but it's usually matching numbers.

Can't get into their site...too much traffic. What's the cost of 9 to 9 Ultimate, Strike?

$249 at Musicians Friend Ol Pal....if you call and say Black Friday they'll give you another 15 % off...

So basically $200 for an update from Komplete 8 Ultimate. Seems worth it to me since I was already considering upgrading Battery, plus I would really like Session Horns, Monark, Rickenbacker, Scanner etc. Lots of stuff I don't have that's worth way more than $200.

Crowded site - but managed to get the upgrade order from K8 to K9 in with no problems but some nerves tingling at longer delays...
 
 
 
 

Kontakt is on sale for $199.00. Good price if you don't have it. (I don't....yet)
I've been mulling over the idea of Komplete Ultimate lately, but decided there's too much stuff in there I really don't need.
Might go for the Scarbee Ricky and The Giant though at the very least. (Don't need Kontakt for those.)
 
 

I bought Kontakt when it was on sale, $199, a couple of months ago. Didn't really want all the libraries - but Kontakt is well worth it as a Swiss-Army sampler tool, it's just one of those things that are hard to get by without.

You're right SH1. I was seeing the Komplete 8 to Komplete 9 Ultimate price.
 
Still, $200 is just above no pain threshold. There's very little of what I don already have since I got a lot of the "new 9 ultimate" stuff already.

If you have any of the crossgrade options to Kontakt, you can get Kontakt for $124.50...
and then upgrade to Komplete for $199 with 15 percent off at MF, making it $169....that's 
a no brainer....that's a whole lot of sampleeeeee/efx/guitarness goodness for less then 3 bones...

And now the question... To move to Ultimate or not?
 
Hmmm...
 
For the most part, I'm not that impressed by what is included in Ultimate. I just don't see that much that excites me. Everything I said "WANT!WANT!WANT!" to was in the standard Komplete. However I am a MASSIVE sucker for sales...
 
Hmmm........
 
:D
