The new NI “Music production process” survey is in facts about NI moving to subscription… 25 sec about what you do and who you are and then 10 min about subscriptions models…(cit of answers given in the last months “Noooooo! Don’t worry: NI is not going to be subscription!”…)
If you want to tell them you don’t want to pay a subscription in order to use your products (and not own anything and lose access to everything you did if you stop paying)…or if au contraire you do want a subscription (why, oh why? 😂) please participate… it’s our only chance to show them that if they move to subscription we won’t follow them (even if, knowing NI, probably the decision is already taken and users opinion won’t mind to much…unless 1 million of us will tell them that they won’t see a penny from subscription)
Be only aware that once again it’s a survey done in typical NI style: first of all they call it “Music production process” while it is in facts about subscriptions…and second when they ask you to name the prices you would be interested into, you can’t put what you want…if they think your answer is not ok you won’t be able to continue
Other than this…at least for one time we have the chance to tell them if we would like it or not (even if, as said, I don’t trust it’s gonna be of any use…usually NI takes its decisions and users must adequate, it’s not user’s needs/will that dictate their offer…a little bit like the fantastic thread “New NI identity and logos: what do you think?”…useful for them just to discover the majority doesn’t like them at all…but then not give a f about the feedback 😂😂😂)
Only pity: there’s no way to add anything more personal, like eventual suggestions (I would have loved to be able at the end to write them that if they want to introduce subscriptions they are more than welcome, but ONLY IF they were a choice for the users, aka you can chose between the new subscriptions OR to continue buying and owning our software as it is now)
