I bought this software, I didn't RENT it!

What still happens?

If you mean the 90 day refresh then I don’t think anyone ever said it wasn’t going to?

The licencing issue.

Drew said they were working on a fix in 2021. I just make sure I open it every couple of weeks now. But when you haven’t because life interferes and you can’t use it because the licence server is down or whatever it’s painful.

It’s a real shame where BFD has ended up. It’s 11 years old, it works but its just not kept up with the times. Support is left to people like you Steve. I’ve had questions that just go unanswered for weeks. Maybe because I’ve bitched about it and therefore the people who are loyal to it just don’t want to help. I don’t know. It doesn’t matter. There are bugs that just don’t get fixed as far as I am aware.

Yesterday it all became too painful and I bought a black Friday special copy of EZDrummer 3. I had some questions that were answered by multiple people within an hour. It’s a different workflow but I’ll get used to it. The sounds are great for what I do so I’ll use it instead now.

I feel sorry for the staff like Drew who are doing the best they can with what appears to be very little help or resources.
