I guess that I am happy for Torben, the developer, if he has regular pay now. I will admit that I used his freeware Classic series without ever sending him a monetary thank you. I'm betting that we free/Classic users outnumbered his paying customers at least 10 to 1.

There seems to be quite a bit of bad feelings from folks who paid for his non-Classic line of plugins and I can understand that as well. But I tip my hat to him for providing the Classic series for so long without financial return.

I hope he gets some kind of kick-back from the folks at Acoustica. That Mixcraft DAW that they market looks pretty nice with it's feature set and GUI/Workflow; but particularly with it's included VSTi. Mixcraft comes with Lounge Lizard and VB3 - which if you paid for both, would cost more than Mixcraft itself.

I'm a very happy VB3 customer/user.
