Crazy thing is my quote for upgrading to the boxed Live 7 suite is 399 euro ??????
(319 download)
I'm rather glad I sat out Live 7 now!

Thank you (was sure I'd been there!)
From the basic Live 6 (no instruments) I'm getting
Upgrade to Ableton Suite (Download)
EUR 349 (about £315)
Upgrade to Ableton Suite (Boxed)
EUR 419 (about £375)
Live 1-6 to Live 8 Upgrade (Download)
EUR 199 (about £180)
Live 1-6 to Live 8 Upgrade (Box)
EUR 229 (about £205)
Damn the exchange rate!
Reckon I'll be going for the last one...

I was hoping for that (it's multiple controller lanes that have been calling my name). But doesn't look like it so far...adventurepants_ wrote:any sign yet of a 'upgrade to Live 7 now, get 8 free type offer?'

That price hurts given that the Sterling has become utterly f***ed in the past year, but needs must.
Any idea what the educational discount was in previous years?
Edit: Google is my friend. from 6 to 7 for Educational customers was $109 down from $159 and its EUR149 this time sooo.......
...if the discount stays roughly the same across versions and currencies, that'd be EUR102.14 for an educational license download upgrade from 7 to 8.
Which makes it GBP91.54 or $US134.04 at today's rates.
Thats much less painful.

$189- US upgrade price? That for me is $285- Aud.
This is way too much- I have spent over $1100- on Ableton, and now people are getting Live 8 Suite for the same price I paid for Live 5! I feel insulted to be honest.
It's a great upgrade, but there will be Max for Live that will be more to shell out etc.... I just don't have it... piracy is looking like an option...
Some sort of payment plan option would at least help me out with such an expense...
