LOL that cracked me up but lets be real here... Given the age of your average KVR'er, mum and dad probably passed to the great beyond years ago.

So now Reason comes out for Linux right?
Or maybe the Reason Plugin i prefer...i would appreciate it so i can use it again... :)

The subscription model is detrimental to evolving the whole of the software. Perpetual license users pay for major features in new versions. Subscribers just pay to play.
Disagree. Subscriptions will keep a flow of money to software developers, which,

I would like to think, would actually result in more advanced products. :love:

That has yet to be seen. Big developments have gone toward new RE instruments for subscribers and the store. Daw development has been pretty well stagnant, and some less interesting instruments were added to Reason.

Well, it needs a new sampler, to say the least.

The rack would at least get a lot more attention if Reason had a more capable sampler with better editor usability and a solid sample library. I'm sure that would pull some people into the daw too, but ultimately the daw needs more features. But that cost of development of a new sampler and library would likely land it under subscription/RE purchase, so it's probably a no-go.

I honestly think just buying the rack version outright is an insanely good value.

Do you mean running it as a VST?

I would have loved to know that before buying Reason Rack.
FYI. It seems that they are included ;) 135 euro for one year is very much worth indeed. That is with the DAW. 79 euros for the rack with one year. You have to install the extra players, effects and instruments via Reason Companion, though. It is not installed by default.

They're not in the version you can buy, which I did. They are only included in the subscriber version of Reason Rack.

I don't disagree, but that is beside the point. NN-XT, and especially it's library, are very long in the tooth.

I think the basic idea here, is just subscribe and get it all, keep it simple, fresh updates...

It is all moving in this direction, can not you see it guys?
