Kann ich Reddit-Slang mit SubRead lernen?

Ja. Ruhiger Reader: Thread öffnen, Phrase markieren, Erklärung bekommen und als Karte speichern.

Was ist Language Lab?

Kurze Pakete (Zeit, Hedging, Slang, Reaktionen) wie auf Reddit geschrieben — dann Iggy fragen.

Gut für ESL / Mittelstufe?

Ja: echte Posts und Kommentare statt Lehrbuch-Dialoge, mit KI wenn Ton oder Slang unklar sind.

Brauche ich ein Konto?

Curiosity

Trying to determine what people gravitate towards more.

A vst plugin for $20 with lifetime license for up to 1 device only?

A vst plugin for $1 a month subscription with up to 3 devices?

A vst plugin for 100 bucks lifetime license for up to 10 devices?

Regardless of plugin type fx/instrument trying to understand market psychology here.

Thoughts?

depends on the plugin, I dunno why I would need 10 licenses lol. Are ya vibe coding some random stuff tht doesn't need to exist or what
- u/Decent_Commercial381101.08.2026, 15:43
  almost certainly
u/johnstod112101.08.2026, 15:43
Some plugins aren't worth $1 in the first place so kinda hard to answer your question. Some of my go to plugins if happily pay 10-15 monthly so long as they are being updated with enough frequency, others I'm sad I spent any money on.

  Wish more devs would do rent-to-own. I commented above that I hate subscriptions, this is because it feels endless and like I never get a product that's mine. But with rent-to-own (eg, Serum2 / Ableton), I pay the same price overall, and get to keep the product. Feels like a win-win.

Any form of subscription is a giant nope.
u/evazetv101.08.2026, 15:51
i prefer plugins from brands i consider trustworthy that are not vibe coded
u/SolDirix101.08.2026, 15:52
No to the subscription thing.
u/croomsy101.08.2026, 16:14
I don't ever want to subscribe to a vst, especially just one. Much rather just pay for the license, 3 devices, ability to manage devices.
u/Gunther-theFool101.08.2026, 16:17
10 devices?
u/FlangerOnTheMaster101.08.2026, 16:18
I prefer lifetime licenses. If its an expensive plugin, its good when we can install on multiple devices. If it's one device with online activation, I like when we can manage our activations.
u/jahitz101.08.2026, 16:25
Always no to subscriptions. I want to buy it outright.
u/SynthPharaoh101.08.2026, 16:29
Most people prefer lifetime licenses and avoid subscriptions.
u/things_U_choose_2_b101.08.2026, 16:41
Lifetime license. I hate adding more subscriptions. I have a subscription for Ableton; for the boiler I had to replace last year; for VPN; for Deezer; and constantly having to fend off new ones after I whittled it down to these essentials.
u/Ri_Konata101.08.2026, 16:43
anything lifetime. i've refused to get anything related to making music as a subscription and i'll continue to do so.
u/minist3r101.08.2026, 16:53
Gimme that $100 license. I produce on my desktop and my laptop so having a vst on a single device is a hard no for me.
u/oalbrecht101.08.2026, 17:08
As someone who built and sold a B2B SaaS business, recurring subscriptions will make it more valuable, since you have predictable revenue. But consumers hate subscriptions and are also very price conscious. That’s why I find selling to businesses is way easier than selling to consumers. Though I have no idea if you’re trying to build a business or just have something on the side. For music plugins, I very much think consumers like one time sales. But that will limit how much your business is worth.

I 've got hardware synths and uninstalled all the VSTIs.
