I am sure if you call they will setup a download for you, but i doubt it will save you money, cause someone has to set it up, and send you an expiring link. that cost. Hey an upgrade from 2010 on HD cost $139 that is NOTHING!!! Especially when you compare it to the fun one has. A day ticket to an amusment park is approaching that. A movie ticket is $11 a bag of Popcorn and a Soda another $10 So two tickets and two sodas, and one large popcorn is $47 Heck for 2.5 trips to the movies to see a show and you can have BiaB, RBm, and all the toys for a year.!!!

I do not mind paying $140 a year for this hobby! And for those that make money from it. well a no brainer.

I get the sentiment of lowering the cost to users, but what business can survive selling product to cheap.

Think about it, the DAW recording market is a very small pond, and there are a lot of very big ducks in it. Protools, Cubase, Sonar, Reaper, Logic, Garageband, BiaB, and those are just a few to name not counting the little guys, like N-tracks, MTS, and such.

All these split up a very limited resource pool. With all that goes into RB, and BiaB the cost of RTs and such i think the upgrade prices are perfect and if they get the size dowbn so we can download i would do that and load it on my 2010 HD and keep the 2011 for a while, and rotate them.
