I figured it would increase like everything else.
Now that prices have dropped with them always being on sale they'll make it up one way or another.
When does it take affect?
heres the email I received
Dear Valued Waves User,
We're writing to let you know that, effective January 1, 2013, Waves Update Plan will have a new cap of $300 per product, regardless of how much time has passed since your coverage was last updated. Like an extended warranty which you can buy only once you need it, Waves Update Plan may be renewed at any time; however, if you renew within one month of expiration, you'll save 20% off the regular price, effectively making the new cap $240.
With Waves Update Plan, you'll receive new plugins as they're added to your bundles. Plus, you'll receive, retroactively, all the plugins that were added since your coverage was last active. Additionally, for every dollar you spend Waves Update Plan, you'll earn credit toward the purchase of any product or upgrade. Plus, all new products and upgrades automatically include one full year of Waves Update Plan coverage. As a Waves Update Plan member, you'll receive the technical guidance they need from experts who know Waves tools inside and out. Regardless of DAW host, plugin platform, or computer operating system, Waves Tech Support has got you covered.
You get the latest Waves versions, which means total compatibility with all major audio hosts and operating systems. You can move between Mac and PC, from Pro Tools to Logic to Nuendo and beyond - and back again.
No matter how many non-overlapping products you own or how long their coverage has been inactive, you'll never pay more than $300 per account to re-activate your coverage for one full year, starting today.
For every dollar you spend on Waves Update Plan coverage, you'll receive a Waves voucher toward the purchase of any product or upgrade. Plus, all new products and upgrades include one full year of coverage.
For overlapping or identical products, the cap is $300 per bundle. And for most Waves bundles, yearly coverage is less.
You don't have to renew your Waves Update Plan coverage every year - renew it only when you want to. And when you do - it'll still cost only $300 or less.
With Waves Update Plan, you receive new plugins as they're added to your bundle. Plus, you'll receive all the plugins that were added since your coverage was last active.
Get the technical guidance you need from experts who know Waves tools inside and out. Whatever your host, whatever your platform, Waves Tech Support has got you covered.
Best Regards,
The Waves Team
