meh.. i always liked the way i just buy it once and done..

 

I don't care, looks like a shitshow, I just want to buy my plugins at (real) sales.

 

Kindness to you Djord. Have a great day. Love the tag line

 

I own a few PA plugins, don't use most of them, so...meh.

 

i think the $99 per year deal is great, even if you already own a few of their plugins. even on sale you would pay $20-30 each for the newer plugins. With 3 plugins for free in the subscription, it comes to almost the same costs, only that you can also use all the others over the year.

if you are not interested in anything else, then you are of course better off buying a plug in a sale per year.

 

I don't understand their new subscription policy. If I pay for one month and then cancel my subscription, do I keep the free plugins?

 

as i understood, you'll receive the voucher for the free plugins after 1 year of payment in the monthly plan. if you cancel straight after this, you can keep the plugins, or even sell them if you like.

 

Thats what i dont understand cause Dirk posted a whole page explaining how he will stop selling plugs and go forward with a subscription model plan by 2023-2024 so get vaseline out to be ready.

-just a week ago the b1tch was telling people to cum get your 29 forever plan cause after this weekend its not forever,
-now its $24 a month for everything and you keep some plugs, participate in a beta test program

what plugin alliance is good at is no longer the product but cheating on their girlfriends

 

just connect the subscription directly to your bank account. it's so easy!

 

Well, $120-$300 per year gets you a whole lot of plugins, which might be a good deal if you use most of them.

While I like PA's stuff, I would only probably get use of a fraction of those, so I'd rather invest in something I use all the time. For that money you get several other plugins from various manufacturers so I'd personally I'd shoot for those.

Like many others have also said, if I'd work on a project which was mostly PA, then it would make sense to me, but not otherwise really.

 

No matter how tempting the offer, I say no!

Again and again these consumer deceptive prices with the suffix 99.
$9.99/mo so 10 dollars // $19.99/mo so 20 dollars // $24.99/mo so 25 dollars

Funny note: in our country here the 1 cent costs 1.2 cents to produce, it's just for keeping up this deception of prices.

 

-just a week ago the b1tch was telling people to cum get your 29 forever plan cause after this weekend its not forever,
-now its $24 a month for everything and you keep some plugs, participate in a beta test program

well with forever 29 you got 12 plugins per year for $360. with mega bundle xxl its 10 plugs for $300. 2 more plugs for $60 surcharge if you kept 29 forever plan. i don't see your point here? everything looks legitimate

 

Nope, its sneaky marketing no matter how you add it up, to tell people 4ever29 now or never means its nit 4ever right? Duh.
The. Duh again if you cancel 4ever at anytime cause for example….this is a better deal…oh and what about 2023, jo more selling plugins means no more support by 2024

 

subscript are the devil. don't do even if you have to go the kazoo for your go to!

 

You kjow plugin alliance screwed russian customers over, simply cut them off

 

30 bucks a month is 3600 bucks in 10 years,
I'd literally rather buy anything else instead...

 

The thing to remember is this; No-one owns nothing no matter what you pay for a plugin/s. You're only buying a restrictive timed licence to use them. Once you get your head around that you'll never buy another licence again.

 

Their marketing is very misleading, I had quite an argument with them via email. They don't actually let you keep specific plugins, they just provide a voucher, which may or may not be good for 6, 8 etc plugins...

I think the best deal they do is Forever 29.

So they have retired the Forever 29 plan, wtf!

if you're in trance there is a pretty decent list of plugins at the middle of the page https://www.sonicacademy.com/course...ulture/how-to-make-progressive-trance-trailer linked this page because the quality can be checked at the top

I would simply buy the mixing-related (order would be Elysia, SPL, Maag Eqs, and BX ones at the end) plugins and forget any subscription stuff, I would revisit the list if UAD Spark plugins are available on pc (end of the year)

D16 ones have rent-own-construction on splice https://splice.com/plugins/manufacturers/705

ps. or

and big thanks to Protoculture to share his knowledge from here too
