AVID MEDIA COMPOSER V3.5 UPGRADE

AVID MEDIA COMPOSER V3.5 UPGRADE

and therefore we should not moan about the fact that it is a flat rate irrespective of version we are on.Р”В«ut if I wait for 4 and then get told that 3.5 users get a better upgrade rate than 3.1 users because they took the upgrade,Р’В I will be mad as a hatter.Р”Р‡or us to plan our business costs and schedules, we need some clarification as to what Avids policy is for setting upgrade prices - is it a flat rate or is it pro-rate according to the version being used?Р”Р„lso is there a policy that sets the upgrade prices at approx $300 (give or take a few $ for the current -2% inflation rate) or are the upgrade prices arbitrarily set at release time and they could potentially be any price? I am asking this because those of us who paid for 3.1 are told weР’В have hadР’В the benefit of 3. The main new feature that Media Composer 4 brings to the table is a fully open timeline that will allow you to edit any combination of video resolutions, frame rates and formats in the same sequence. Will this policy be carried forward for the next release? Or will 3.5 users get a better deal than 3.1x users when upgrading to the next version release? Avid recently announced the release of the 4.0 version of Media Composer, following very quickly on the tail of the 3.5 release. The upgrade price seems to have now standardised on a flat rate irrespective of which version you are on.

I think this is an important issue and it was what I have brought up in another post:
