Live 8 just released, Easter weekend, I can see why there might be a delay.

I would have followed up at 7 days, if not sooner.

hopefully you'll get a response soon, they are usually very good but the holiday period (skeleton staff probably) and new release makes it a longer than usual wait.

They will get to you, I just got my stuff sorted out with them this morning. I waited 12 days - so I'd think they could get to you by wednesday. They are slammed.

To be clear, we're talking about an upgrade. If he bought a full blown new copy of Ableton - you might actually be comparing something.

I've had to deal with customer care a few times. They have always been fast in a response and fast to resolve a problem. But the release of Ableton 8 (somewhat sloppy one at that) generated a lot of support mail for them. So take a number, and get in line.
