Now spread that cost over the 12 years or so they had to work on all the GUI's..Actually, let me get back to this - it takes months of R&D, and then some other months to implement the new GUI, as its so complex that every image needs to be reconstructed pixel by pixel and every button state needs to be redrawn by hand, and when implementing in the code the devs need to code the pixels separately, drawing them on a complex OpenGL framework that needs to also be connected to the plugin API which needs to be redesigned to be able to cope with the higher resolution monitors. Only the GUI change itself costs a lot of programmer hours, which adds up to at least $50 from the final cost of the plugin. That's why asking $199 for distorsion plugin is absolutely justified, even if Behringer just released an analog hardware synth for $250 - we all know that Uli is bad and needs to be booed.
