If last year is any indication we could be less than two weeks away from some new goodies!
I pick November 30 as my prediction.

I wondered when the Guessing would start!☺ Our RHarv reckons that my prediction of "two weeks" away is an "assumption. But I reckon its a good one. PG usually send Santa out early and I hope its the same this year. Ian PS - my money's on December 1st.

Yes, I was wondering when the predictions would start too. Much later this year? Maybe we're getting used to it. (No-one ever predicts mid-year releases anymore also)

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

As a PG and BB newbie (my first year) I am looking forward to it too, but I still have SOOO much to learn from my BB 2015.
So I am likely less excited about the changes as I am still learning and on that new relationship high...lol
But I will be right in there like glue when it comes out...

I got to remember to take the Bonus Pak offer this time, last year I thought it would all be included in the Audiophile version but wasn't. Nervous November.. It gives time for the overseas user's to get it before the rush.

PG usually send Santa out early and I hope its the same this year. Ian PS - my money's on December 1st. Are you saying it WAS an assumption or it wasn't? I was just wondering if you knew something I didn't. You said it was two weeks away in the referenced post, so I asked how you knew that.. In my experience the release date is a surprise for everyone, even those that think they have some insight. That said, it IS the time of year for the anticipation to begin.
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome Make your sound your own!

I am on the road in the great northwest of Canada. Stopped into a bar last night and I overheard a guy at the end of the bar (apparently had been drinking for a while)saying he was the primary programmer for PG Music. He said the release of BIAB 2016 - Nov 27! How's that for a hot rumor.

Yes I got the wrong links too. Paid for 2016 Pluspak and have the new license but only 2015 files are listed. I think they are looking into the problem

Maybe it's an issue depending on what upgrade you get. I did get the right links for the EverythingPAK.
