Well, it seems obvious the upgrade's price of DP6 is 195$, all over the US.
Converting that price in € would give us a price of 123€. Yet, the price of this upgrade will be 195€, in most of the EU countries! I, personally, don't accept that treatment. Motu is not totally responsable of his distributors, and I agree with the way they sell their products, and let some updates free of charge. But in this case, I can't accept that.  Don't forget 195€ is the customer's price, not a distibutor's price (including marging...). Linking this with the average currency 's conversion will place that upgrade at +- 300$ !!!!!! OK! Of course they are ship's costs,and so on, but don't you find the difference is unacceptable? What do you think? French users and some belgian ones are furious! Let's have a look... http://nav.440network.com/out.php?mmsc=for...34&start=15 DP's french community is about 3000 people! Let's imagine how many users that represents in the whole EU DP's community... in Germany, the Netherlands, Zwitserland,Italy, and so on...? I hope this will help to get a decent price...  Otherwise, I will seriously consider Apple'offer with Logic Pro. -------------------- MacPro dual 2.66 - 8 Go - SL10.6.6- DP 7.2.1 - RME FFCE 800 - URS, Sonnox, Stilwell, Nomad Factory, Kontakt 4.2.2, Trillian, Stylus, EZ drummer, SD2, UVIworkstation, Altiverb - KRK - JBL

Hi everybody:
Well, is not just MOTU, I expended some time recently in Spain and could chek some prices...It´s amazing how people value US products (must I say over-value). Almost every musician is glad to pay almost twice the price of a Fender Jazz Bass, for instance, rather than try a wonderful European well made instrument.. I also could see the same ticket for a bunch of Japanese pedals.... So, let´s face it.....It is an unfair world, there are no rules......and we are in the middle of it.....dealing with PIRACY and Global Weather changes...... Why don´t we go back a little in time and make our music with our head...?? Happy Weekend... G
