nope – a bet it is, as for now it is just a rumour.

"bets"?  
They are called "Screws" as far as I know ;-) 
Applied to the thumbs or other sensitive body extensions they can be very 
effective.
Especially in an endless spiraling economic crisis they are needed to extract 
shareholder value from customers who might have become a bit reluctant to let 
go of possessions, even if it's for the greater good.

It's easily fixed with the:
S.C.R.E.W.E.D. 2013 Subscription Benefit Pack Extender Set.

Once applied, the needed flow of fresh blood, ahem, cash, is guaranteed.

Enjoy your stay ;-)

Cheers,

Tom

  a little fairy told me today...
  in about two weeks we (Europe) would see 25% increase on licenses/maintenance 
for autodesk 3D software, and upgrades at about 75% of the cost of new licenses.

  all bets are on.

  It's a North American price change.
  I haven't seen anything about price changes in the rest of the world.

  europe and 20% in japan.

  The price increase for commercial US and Canada licenses will be something
  on the order of 5%, I believe.
  I don't have the actual prices atm.

  Subscription prices do not change.
  Price changes apply to new licenses.

    You know,

    I was just subscribed to this list to pick up the odd bit about 3d and
    softimage...but I feel the need to comment.

    I initially got softimage (decided to use it) because it was selling
    for
    400 bucks or something.  Seemed like a good way to get into the
    industry, small.

    what is happening and has been happening with this is just $%#@ed up.

      yeah, got some funny emails as well.
      It seems that in the future you can update up to 6 or 7 versions
      back, but have to pay 70% of the full original price (which funny
      enough was increased quite considerably for XSI not that long ago).
      I'm sure an Autodesk representative would be able to explain why this
      is a fantastic thing to happen.


      I'd call it your basic miss-use of a monopoly.

              So it looks like we're all going to see a price increase in
              August.
