Let's put an end to those discussions about how well Bitwig's model works for spreading the (potential) renewals, shall we?

The results might also hint at when we can expect v4 announcement

Hm yeah this round doesn't seem to be too fair... Ok we have Corona, right? But we also have Apple changing the base once again, and so far the vast majority is not benefiting from those changes at all

One solution: There could be separate macos intel and macos arm builds of Bitwig. And the arm version will cost 20% more for the next 2 years... Or the intel build + win + linux 20% less

You know, ARM mac users for sure don't care so much for money...

Mines been out since December, but I already have a code stashed for when I need it.

Me too. It seems although I ran out in December/January I've had access to all the updates on 3.3.x.

That's because x.y.* updates are available for anyone that owns x.y version, regardless of the plan being active or not. It's nothing new.

Yeah, when 3.4 arrives (or 4.0) I'll need to use my stashed code.

Antic, is there no translation for the word Patience in Polish?

Mine is now expired, but I have paid and just waiting to activate when v4 arrives.

Why is there the "...I'm already out" option?

Because if your plan has already expired, there's no telling which month it will expire in the future because that the depends on when you're gonna renew it

It's "cierpliwość"

And mine is stretched to its limits

I am quite surprised almost half the users have an expired plan, it shows how important it is for the Bitwig Dev's to release an update with broad appeal (features considered important by most) so that people upgrade. This is of course assuming that they are somewhat driven by revenue and not just making what they personally enjoy...although in a way I could respect that!

Indeed. I was not expecting this.

Were June and November both times there was a release (sounds about right!)
