Reply To: NOT A DEAL: Spitfire Has Been Acquired by Splice

Hopefully the plugin/sample-library industry learned from Waves’ backlash when they tried to abruptly drop perpetual licenses and force everyone onto subscriptions. Let’s hope Splice and Spitfire keep that lesson in mind. I don’t think they’re dumb or unaware of what people are saying, but money does weird things to people. Soundcloud introduced paid tiers and restricted features for free users, leading to user backlash and a decline in its core independent artist community. Spotify continues pushing AI-generated music despite user and artist complaints about quality and compensation. Desperate times i guess
