Avid Pro Tools Studio Perpetual License w/ 1 year of Upgrades & Support, renewable annually - ESD

Pro Tools has made a complete overhaul to how you buy your Pro tools software. Featuring a new model with monthly and annual subscriptions or a perpetual licence, all sofware updates will be available as and when they are ready rather than piling up for a big Pro tools "x" release. As a result you will now always be up to date with the latest tools and workflow enhancements to help you make music creatively.

The Perpetual Licence

The Perpetual licence offers customers a one-off fee to own a version of pro tools licence forever. With this licence you will get 1 year of upgrades and support. After this first year you can decide to keep these updates and support going for a recurring annual fee, or you can keep your current version of the software. This is the cheapest way of owning Pro Tools, but bear in mind that you need to keep this  going and once that annual upgrade date has been passed, you will then need to buy a new copy of pro tools to get the new updates. For example, you can't skip a year of updates and then pay the 2nd year to get all the updates you missed
