Yes, I agree that the Electronic Instruments suite rock. Didn't know  
NI discontinued them. But anyway, I wouldn't buy another product from  
NI because their licensing policy makes it difficult for me. I move  
around a lot to play, produce recordings or teach other producers and  
students. Then I often need to use my instruments with different  
computers and NI doesn't let you move the software license a lot  
between machines, as most other software manufacturers do. You are  
allowed to activate your software license on two machines, but if you  
need to use a third machine for some particular project you will have  
to deactivate one of the first two. This is all fine so far, but the  
bad hook is that you will never in the future be allowed to re- 
activate any of those first two machine's licenses. So in praxis I  
can't use NI's products because I'm a pro. Ridiculous, isn't it!

I already own Kontakt 2 and the EWQL symphonic orchestra library,  
which are great as music production products, but I doubt I will ever  
buy anything more from NI. My conscience would haunt me for ever if I  
supported their business morals any further.
