What's new

I paid ~$1200.00 for Hollwood Strings and apparently I have to buy Gold if I want to save HDD space

True, but expecting someone to BUY the lesser product when it amounts to pretty much the same thing minus the extras isn't just a joke, it's outrageous.

They are two separate products, period. One has 24 bits samples, the other 16 bit. But if you don't like their policy, don't patronize them.
 
There seems to be an overall agreement that "we don't like EW" here. Meanwhile, my template is 60% EW at the very least, and whenever this comes up,

I don't know what percentage of my template is EW, but some of it is from their original orchestra. It still sounds really good.

I'm sitting here shaking my head and munching popcorn.
Want some, Nick? :emoji_popcorn:

Much appreciated, but I prefer to watch NBA basketball and do really good drugs.
 
They are up to PLAY 6 and there's no way to CC control anything nor create your own keyswitches and they produce marketing videos claiming "better singers"(...talk about patronising)

Yes they are a joke.

And congrats on all the Americans finding cheap SSDs. I have the unfortunate handicap of being born on a remote island where everything cost a lot more $$$.

Wow. Surprised to see this thread still going strong.

My two cents. If one buys a big knife and doesn't like it. This doesn't mean he can go back to the store and demand he gets the smaller knife for free. Different products for different things.


So many people here seem to have a lot of trouble coming up with appropriate analogies.
 
I agree. It should be gratis to download Gold if you were an early adopter of Diamond. The problem is probably that the iLok licenses are all separate.

And yet, where you are is where you are-and you’re still here.

Oh btw-yeah, I agree-in a reasonable world, they’d give you Gold, but only if you were willing to give up your Diamond license.

It's like buying a giant watermelon and taking it home. Deciding you don't like, you go back to the supermarket and grab a smaller fruit, say an orange, and try to walk out of the store without paying. The manager stops you and says you have to pay for that orange, and you say "but I bought a bigger fruit so I should get this fruit for free." Manager tries to reason with you and say that's not how the world works. You continue to argue. Eventually he calls the police.
