Update: This is pretty awesome:

Lifetime free updates

Registered FL Studio users who purchase the download edition of the program receive lifetime free updates to the level of the program they buy (Express, Fruity Loops or Producer edition). For example, all FL Studio 6 customers will be able to download FL Studio 7 free, FL Studio 8 free and so on. Boxed edition users can purchase lifetime free updates for a nominal fee.

  1. I got logic, and performer, and protools, and ableton (albiet an old version), but I always come back to Fruity Loops er. I mean FL Studio.

    Love that program to bits.

  2. Beware the "lifetime" updates!!

    I purchased Fruity Loops back when it was just Fruity Loops (not FL express, or FL producer, etc.). They add a whole bunch of features, and then create three different versions (so that the old school users had to upgrade to get the new features).

    Technically it is "lifetime" updates, but the FL producer people shouldn't be supprised when FL producter PRO gets introduced as a product, and you have to upgrade to that to get the newest features when the FL people start needing more money.

  3. That is true. Still, most of the updates are just extra plugins. Comes out to about 100/year, which is better than Ableton I think.

    But ya, you will feel them penny pinching.

    Those damn developers at Image Line, wanting that new Honda.
