I would like to upgrade Reason, but my computer won't allow anything past Mac OS X 10.9.

I'm not expecting a new iteration of version 9. I'm still on Reason 9 and I am still receiving support from the company if I have a question or problem. Really, only Reason Studios themselves can say if they'd 'barely have to do anything' to get what fraction of a profit could be had from keeping older versions purchasable. Keeping older versions available seems to mean, for some people, that full support for older versions should also be available - again, that would be an added cost in time and money that likely isn't worth it, if you actually added things up. We know this because in the past there have been people complaining about things like why nobody updated Reason 5 to handle Rack Extensions, or why newer versions of Reason won't work in 32-bit operating systems. This idea of 'revenue sitting on the table' only works if you can actually point to real people in sufficient numbers to justify holding all the older versions of Reason on the servers - all that space comes with a cost.įurthermore, leaving older versions as purchasable content opens up a certain amount of liability: You can bet that if Reason Studios left older versions available, there would be people complaining that these older versions needed bugfixes or other improvements. It's been how long since 5 was released? Almost 10 years - I think that's long enough to say that anyone who possibly was going to upgrade from 4 to 5 has either already done so or is likely never going to do so. If anyone out there is still using Reason 3 or 4, it's either because their machines are too outdated to run anything better or because they stopped updating Reason once they implemented the Codemeter authorization routine that pretty much prevented piracy. There may not be a ton of users who want to upgrade to an older version but I would bet there would be enough. Revenue is sitting on the table and Reason Studios barely has to do anything to take it. Upgrading to version 11 may not be an option for them but upgrading to Reason 4 or 5 would be. There are still people out there who are using Reason 3 or 4.
