There is NO difference and you CAN upgrade. I bought Logic Pro Academic v7 and the 7.1 upgrade a while back and gots no probs. Hope this helps...

OK. Here is an example of the academic upgrade situation...
I own an academic copy of Logic Express 6.4. It was purchased as academic institution (I am an IT professional at a school) for $100. I could upgrade this to Logic Express 7.1 as retail for $100. But why would I want to do that when I can just buy another copy academic for $100? I would then own 2 licenses and XSKeys, whereas if I 'upgraded' I only have 1 license and XSKey. So it's like this, you CAN upgrade an academic copy, but the cost is the same as buying an entire new copy, because there is no 'academic upgrade pricing' only retail. Get it.

There may have not been a difference between XSkeys in Logic 6 and before, but with the new white XSkeys I'm not so sure. My XSkey has "Retail" printed on it. The original poster has "Academic" printed on his. Beyond this maybe there's no difference, but when Logic 8 comes out and people who've got academic versions try to upgrade, maybe they'll be out of luck.
Obviously it works for smaller updates to keep Logic in step with Garageband, but for the bigger updates...remains to be seen. |
