FWIW I have kept using PTP through the years as well as BiaB and RB.

One location we record at, the guy there likes PT since about 2007 or so, and has just kept using it.
The amazing part is his old version just kept working through all the new computers and OS he has bought over the years.
From W98 thru W10.
I am talking to him now about updating it so he can have the new 64 bit version.
I think his last update was PT12 or so smile

It feels so weird when I go over there and sit down in front of his old version.
Things have moved around for more efficient workflow since then, so it seems clunky to me now.

Once he sees the new version and plays with it for half an hour he'll be right back at home with it.
There is lots of new stuff, but the old stuff still works.

As mentioned above, if you really want the easy route to making music quick, BiaB is the way to go.
You can have a band play the song from start to finish using real recorded musicians and get all kinds of variations.
If you go that route, they do throw in Realband, which is basically PTP with the ability to generate these tracks, which means you don't have to actually play everything in (or enter it by hand).
It's a bit more $$ though, but from what I understand they don't have to honor the 30 day moneyback guarantee very often.
It does what it says.

Take a little time and look at the videos for all three products.
Then you'll be a little better prepared to decide.

I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome
