![]() and for many people it works great and does the job they need it to do. you decide and if you think LPX is worth $200 then go ahead purchase it and if not, don't. "Why should I pay $200 for LPX when I already paid $200 for Logic 9?" its a good deal relative to other similar products. The Full price happens to also be less than or the same as the Upgrade price for many other DAWs so again. and compared to other DAWs the cost to purchase the Full version is much lower than almost all the other ones that provide a similar feature set. The point is $200 for a full version of Logic Pro X is in my mind, a good price deal. The fact that you can 'upgrade' from L9 to LPX by buying the full application is irrelevant. Who cares what anyone else pays for something so long as you decide if an application is worth one price or another? ![]() This has to be one of the dumbest arguments of all time Elhardt. And after dropping Logic Express, all the Express people are now pushed into a much more expensive "upgrade" system. I used to pay $30 to $50 for an upgrade to a $500 product, and that was mostly because they had to send out a new manual and disks. I've been buying software a long time, and the upgrade price percentages have jumped way up. Older loyal users end up paying a lot more for the same product compared to a new buyer. There seems to be an attitude among software companies that they should be able to keep extracting money from people for the same product. That makes Logic a $700 piece of software now. " at one time Apple charged $499 for the DVD version and upgrades were $199, so what's the difference?"Ī $200 upgrade for a $500 is also ridiculous. And boy are those people screwed who just bought Logic 9 several days ago only to have to buy it all over again a few days later if they want the latest version. ![]() Considering upgrades mostly consist of minor changes or bug fixes, rebuying the product for every "upgrade" just for those 0.001 % of changes seems outrageous. So there are no upgrades if the other posts know what they're talking about. ![]() But as a pervious commenter wrote, buying a product all over from scratch at full price ISN'T AN UPGRADE. Nor am I sniveling as per your obnoxious comment states, as I received a free copy of Logic from Apple. I never said Apple can't do anything they want. Logic's original price before being purchased by Apple was $999. Apple is a hardware company, you need to purchase their machines to run Logic, that's where they make their money and whay Logic is so cheap. Professionals used Logic and they understood what a bargain it was, it enabled them to make a living for a fraction of the price of hardware recording systems both tape and digital.įor what you're getting it's ridiculously cheap.Īnyway. at one time Apple charged $499 for the DVD version and upgrades were $199, so what's the difference? whether or not anyone wants to call it an upgrade doesn't matter, it's still $199 and that will be good for all incremental updates, when Logic XI is released it will be another $199. Upgrades are always less costly than the full price no matter how good of a deal you think Logic is.Īpple can do anything they want, it's their merchandise. The things people say to try to justify prices is kind of ridiculous.
