So, no DVDs in future versions and possible internet activation being added to an already copy-protection heavy product?

Hi Carlos, let me be clear...
If this is about purchasing a downloadable Cubase version in future, that's fine, happy to download 10GB or more.
If this is a move to licencing for permanently-on internet access, I will not be upgrading again... (it's your "is your DAW online" question that worries me here)

Thanks.

Always-on-DAW could never work for a professional level product. Could you imagine being in a studio, having paid for a week of their time, and their internet connection going down (it happens!). You'd be sitting there like a lemon.

No problem downloading big files for future products,
but having to have the daw always connected in order to work sounds like a bad idea.
I hope they don't take that route.

If customers have to download large file sets, they should be broken into a set of smaller files and be easy to download using download accelerators i.e. in segments (eg DownThemAll extension to Firefox allows 10 simultaneous segments per file).
Some of the lamer file serving sites treat use of download accelerators as many attepmts to download a single file and tell the user their link has expired if they have to resume the download (!).
If you are going to do this, do it right.

Wow, I was considering switching to Cubase at some point, from Sonar, but if they go the online only route . . . same reason I did not buy Diablo 3

Surely they cant do this. This would mean I cant take my laptop to the countryside/beachfront and work. Very rarely do these remote locations have internet access. After all, this is the reason they're popular as getaway's.

Done!
Just a detail: my DAW is sometimes connected to the internet. So I filled in "no".

I don't see a single hint of this in the survey. For me, it's clearly about moving to downloadable versions and nothing more. If they were thinking of a cloud Cubase the questions would be more complex and more specific.fandango wrote:If this is a move to licencing for permanently-on internet access, I will not be upgrading again...

Guess I should have completed the survey before running my mouth
It's very quick and painless.
