Those on Pro+ plan, still buying WD.

I’m on the Pro+ plan. Are any Pro+ users buying Magix WD as well. Just wondering. My Magix WD is up.
My thanks,
-Bill

you do not need to

pro + will do everything WD does

just let it lie without uninstalling - you can then always go back to it if you decide pro+ is not for you

Bill, I stopped renewing my XWDPv15 and kept XDPX through to v17. There are very few changes in v17 that ever warranted me to upgrade.
This year, I have had clients with XWDPv17, needing their sites tidied or assistance. I used XDPXv17 and presented a .WEB (changed the extension) and all worked fine.
I even offered up a XWDPv15 version to allow them to run and save it in their version; all worked without issue.

As I too also have XPro+, I will let my XDPXv17 Update Service lapse without a care.

P.S. I do lose the Magix M Website cover. As this was only ever http, it is probably good that I expunge all my plays on that and use a real service provider.
The downside is some TG links were to acorn.xara-hosting so these will die.

I'm also a XARA Pro+ User/Member. I decided it to help Xara out of Magix's mill.
Magix does NOTHING for Us XARISTIS!

Maybe I'm an idealist but I will believe that Xara Corp. will set the focus to XARA-Designer and bring all the thinks to go on we wish all the time. Matt, as the new CEO has now the chance.
And that's the way I will help him with my subscription.

If not, I think I will follow Xara an another Year and then do my decissions about Xara, and choose my software I will prefer and work with it in future.

Matt, you have my email but I would only be interested with an SSH service (https) and a sub-domain that I could (re-)name.

This should come with Xara Cloud anyhow.
