FAQ on our licensing policy, updates and upgrades

Updates within a major version (i.e. the first digit in the version number) are for free and can be downloaded at the respective product pages or here.

E.g. For a customer that bought Tunebite version 4.0, all updates within the series 4.x.x.x are for free, like in version 4.1.0.35, which a customer can download and activate with his/her old license received while purchasing Tunebite 4.0

Please note that RS Audials complete, which contains all our products, is a special case and the rule for updates and upgrades based on version number does not apply here. Please contact our support for more information on the upgrade/update policy for RS Audials complete.

Please use the 'Upgrade' dialogue available in the product if you want to upgrade to a version with extra features. You can open this dialogue by clicking on  the 'Upgrade' button available on the main-window top-right on the application.  E.g. From "RadioTracker Premium" to "RadioTracker Platinum" or "Radiotracker Platinum"  to  "RS Audials One".

Upgrading a product from a "lower" to a "higher" version with more
features is not simply a process of exchanging one product for another,
but rather a completely new order transaction. Consequently, upgrade
prices do not equal the difference between the prices of both versions,
as processing fees are included.

Even so, we grant a discount on the price of the higher version!

Concrete example:
A customer has purchased Tunebite Premium for  € 19.90 ($ 26.90 ). He would now
like to get the superiour version, Tunebite Platinum, which costs € 29.90 ($ 39.90).

Due to the discount offer, the customer can upgrade to Tunebite Platinum for only € 14.90 ($ 19.90).

Please note that our website tabulates the features for each version. In
addition, website and order forms usually suggest to buy the highest
product version. This way, chances are lower you do mistakenly purchase
a version with less features.

Please always make a copy of your license mail and save it somewhere where you can retrieve it – not just electronically on your PC, but print out the license email, so that, in case you buy a new PC or if you have to re-install your system, you can recover it. In extreme cases, we might be able to help you.  Please contact us at Support.
