But if they had said that, people could also think that e-on had taken Vue 4 Pro and removed features to create Vue 5 Pro Studio. What actually happened is that they took Vue 5 and added some features from Vue 4 Pro as modules. They bundled all of these modules into a single package called Vue 5 Pro Studio. It was never their intent to imply that Vue 5 + Modules = New version of Vue 4 Pro. I understand how the way it was presented could be confusing, but being confusing is a risk to take if they want to offer mutiple choices for people to upgrade. They could just as easily have decided that there would be only one version of Vue, meaning Vue Pro, at $600, and not allowed any cheaper way to upgrade. That's why I don't believe in a marketing scheme, which would imply the confusion was deliberate to force people into upgrading for something they don't want or need. Besides... nobody is forced to upgrade as soon as announcements are made :)
