VPX 16 upgrade price

Hi,

It's tough for VPX customers who I believe want to evolve, just like life!

The VegasCreative management team is doing a good job technically (they fix bugs and incorporate improvements within the current version) and financially, I have no doubt! Magix really doesn't want some people to keep updating the video editor, either technically (because it hasn't fixed at least 5 bugs confirmed by the technical department for at least 2 years), or financially because Vegas Pro is costing customers a 54% saving! There really is no justification for this!

Excuse my indignation!

Magix pricing policies are not always "clear" to users, but in an email I received earlier this week was a link to this web page, where an upgrade to VPX16 Ultimate costs considerably less than the prices you quote! Clearly, I don't know whether this offer is also available to you in Brazil.

Hi @emmrecs

Trade war! ??
It makes no moral sense! I didn't know that!
VPX is restricted! I think that in my country, me and about 4..5..6.. at most know about VPX! (sometimes the joke is true!)
Vegas Pro has a better price in my country, obviously because the user base must be huge!
Or maybe a commercial agreement between the directors of Vegas Pro and VPX? Who loses? Who wins? And the customer?

Thanks!

Hi Roberto,

If you already own Magix Pro X16, you can upgrade to Magix Video Pro X16 Ultimate. As far as I can tell, you can purchase and install all nine programs for £49.99.

You can inquire about this at: infoservice@magix.net

@emmrecs Thanks for the tip and the opportunity to continue using Magix. I was already thinking about returning to Vegas Pro and would have to redo a lot of work since I had changed from VMS to MMS. And so I evolved and naturally today I need to be better suited to VPX.

@Bol Thanks! If I acquired it, they should advertise it better and sell more because my country is a big consumer of technology and I believe the Germans know this very well.

@Roberto-Goncalves

No, I didn't buy it since I already have several of the offered plugins and the remainder don't really interest me!
