Yep, like I said - seriously doubt RS would do that.

Don't get me wrong. I like Reason and have been using it since 2001, but the way things are going they are pushing me away as a customer. As soon as it is subscription only, i'm gone. You and probably the vast majority of everyone else who isn't on R+ already, myself included. Personally I don't th...

So, how about that #2?

Again, you might want to reach out to RS support to get clarification.

Also, neither of us really knows what was the plan Verdane had for Reason / Propellerhead. My theory is as good as yours. Of course it is, so long as both of our "theories" can be criticised and open to dissection as much as the next one. Yes? And so while we're discussing this, let's stay respectf...

Reading posts like this or some of the earlier ones, I start to recall why I asked for my account to be deleted. How scared you have to be, or insecure, or blinded; to write things like this? Sad. :thumbs_down: No offense Artur, but is it possible you are making a mountain out of a molehill? For th...

One thing's for sure, Niklas Agevik brought the Reason community together with his interview

This thread is rapidly becoming the Enoch against the world show. https://media.giphy.com/media/l3q2uvcxdk1pDLzGM/giphy.gif It's a forum. People are entitled to voice their opinions and, imho, mods should respect that rather than prolonging the argument and smothering debate. The CEO's comments are...

Yeah, no. I don't think for most people here braindead watching of Netflix (etc.) is an alternative to making music ;) That's an assumption you're making based on your own personal activity. Meanwhile, some of the rest of the world does in fact choose to watch a movie or do something else instead o...

I mean, he did speak clearly. Most understood what he actually meant from the start.

Some questions I don't think were answered here or on RS' website: 1) Can I stack R+ licenses, e.g. buy 5 of them on sale and have 5 years covered? 2) Can I buy a R+ license at 3rd party reseller (like: Audiodeluxe, Plugin Boutique, etc.) and not activate it for some time? Does it have expiry / mat...

Looks like his left testicle isn't off the hook just yet eh?

I wonder what RS sees on their end, though?

Thankfully enough to keep developing/updating Reason DAW proper!

That's not what I'm saying at all :shock: "Reason user" is - IMO, of course! - someone who's using Reason the DAW. I don't care if they stole it, bought it or subscribe to it. But I bet my left testicle that vast majority of R+ subscribers use RRP exclusively or most of the time. Well, apparently, ...

I couldn't tell the last time where I saw Reason users say "I am switching to Netflix/Steam because Reason is not doing it for me anymore". This idea that you are competing with Netflix/Steam is strange Again, it's not specifically "Netflix" or even "Steam". The entire point was: making Reason fun/...

What's a bit puzzling to me: Why not make a basic version of RRP free? RS still developes fine Rack Extensions like BV-X, Chord Sequencer, Objekt, etc. Let's say you have no Reason license and you are not interested in any subscription but you would like to buy and use Objekt. Would you buy Reason ...

All I know is that they're failing on implementing either... You say that (and believe me, since before your return from being banned, you're not the first :lol: ) but... they aren't failing. The company hasn't folded, they keep releasing Reason updates and new Rack Extensions, and their user-base ...

I'll try to give more perspective on my "journey" through Verdane buying Reason. And why my stance shifted from positive to neutral/negative, compounded by the confusing messaging from the HQ, not helped by spotty track record. -------------------------------------------- Initially , I thought Verd...

So I guess the idea is that he's saying that if you can afford Netflix and Steam accounts, you should easily be able to afford a Reason+ subscription? I read the entire thread OK, but I thought things were clarified for you here: https://forum.reasontalk.com/viewtopic.php?p=650749#p650749 Or when y...

No, that's not what he's saying at all. I'd recommend you read the entire thread.

Some of the mods on this forum really need to think about stepping down imho.

You're not wrong. It's a thankless job that we all do for free, and continually dealing with spambots, trolls, passive aggressiveness, and grown people who behave like children can get tiring.

The choice is always Netflix vs. music-making time, then between DAWs within that music-making time. Right, so the choice is always [OTHER CRAP THAT ENTERTAINS YOU AND TAKES UP YOUR TIME] vs. music-making time. Niklas' point is to make sure that Reason is the thing that draws you away from that oth...

Again, it's not specifically "Netflix" or even "Steam". The entire point was: making Reason fun/inspiring enough to compete for your time against shit you'd otherwise be doing (watching movies/TV or playing video games. Or reading a book. Or going to the mall). Etc...

So… “carving out time” isn’t competing with the things you literally just listed?! Lmao… ok. :lol: No. I don't partition my time to Work, Family, Netflix, Reason, Bitwig, Studio One. LMAO... later... But it inevitably competes for my music making time... ... that you carve out of your day. You can ...

Again. We all struggle to find free time during the day for our music making between day jobs, family / friends commitments, Netflix/HBO/Prime, etc. and ...that damned sleep. But once we carve out that time, then Reason is competing with other DAWs for many of us. So, saying that Reason competes wi...

@DaveyG, I edited your post. I realize a lot of emotions are flying in this thread, so please remember: rules_reminder.JPG To everyone: Reason Studios employees are humans just like you and me, and they certainly don't need to come here. But they choose to, and they choose to occasionally engage wit...

As a side note related to other comments I’ve seen, I’ve never understood why “fun” is considered a bad thing by some. It IS fun to make music, fun and incredibly rewarding. It’s less fun to make music when you’re, say, hindered by bugs, when you have to do clunky workarounds to get to your result,...
