Idk, I don't think "the investors" deem themselves smarter in terms of DAWs than the Props, I guess both the investors and adding VST support is more of an expression of the Props themselves trying to move forcibly in another direction.
Haha, I always knew it would be interesting to announce the investment shortly before VST announcement. For context, when I became product manager I pretty much set the fire that lead to VST support and that was way before I knew anything about investors. The big reason for adding it was quite simple, really: most user feedback and research pointed to it being really important and that you guys wanted it. Now, here we are.

We will never know, its possible, but you will always say the politically correct thing for the company, you will always say the last version of reason was the most succesful, bla bla bla, we know how company's and their PR stunts work, but you can be right, I dought it and personally believe its all related (verdane and vst), I have no proof, it just came too much at the same time.
Its not like verdane came in for their audio/music/daw passion, they want profits, nothing else, and vst's were the only way to go to grow reason, come on here, I wasn't born yesterday
That speach of Ernst was painful to watch, but everybody changes their mind, I do to, Hey RE's are great, but they did not have the success you hoped for, and here you will probably come and say, re's are a complete and total success, the best thing ever... or something along these lines and that's why you're adding vst's
In the end, I'm glad vst's are coming, I was stating to consider other daw's because guitar amps sims never really developed to my taste (mercurial), but now its fixed
