Quote - Going to be hard for Daz to escape the same expectations when the next full level release comes out for Studio..."Oh wow thanks for the new features, but when are you going to give them to us for freel like last time?"...or.... "Oh wow thanks for the new features, but I am going to wait until they are free!"

Yes.  I think there are already a lot of customers who are trained to wait for deep discounts.  I know I am.  After being burned several times, I never buy anything there unless it's 50% off more more.  (Unless it's something I really need right away, or I want to support the creator.)

They seem to want to break away from this.  Didn't they say the days of big sales were over, there's never going to be a price better than this, etc.?  So much for the "new pricing strategy." 

I'll be interested to see what happens with March Madness.  Their last "chain" sale was kind of a disaster.  (The kind where you have to buy today's product to get a coupon for tomorrow's.)  With so many items Genesis only, there was really no point for me to participate.  And as it turns out, I didn't have to.  They ended with a catchup sale.  All items, no coupon necessary.
