I recently received this e-mail offer: Bring A Friend To Amarra! You love music - we know you do because you already own Amarra! And since already you know how great music sounds with Amarra, we're giving you the chance to share the experience with your friends and loved ones. Through this offer, you can open their ears to the world of Amarra by giving them their very own copy of the world's most beautiful sounding music player. Click here for an additional copy Amarra: $59.99 Click here for an additional copy of Amarra Hifi: $24.99 Right now, you can purchase an additional full-function copy of Amarra or Amarra Hifi that you can give to your spouse or your best friend (hey...maybe that's even the same person!). Or, maybe you'd just like to add another copy of Amarra to a second computer in your house, on the road, or in your office. Either way, now is the perfect time to give the gift of Amarra. Why wait for a holiday?! Let us know how you're doing with Amarra, we'd love to hear from you; write to us at sales@sonicstudio.com. And, don't forget to 'Like' us on Facebook! This is sad shit. |

I paid $350 for a 48MB (yes MEGAbyte) MP3 player in 1995. But I was the first person to own one. |

If it helps at all, I think the offer is for existing customers only. |

After feeling being ripped off, what's understandable when looking at a 1500$?? price erosion in shortest time - you still do marketing for them. You'll never learn.

About 2 or 3 years ago, a few here including myself questioned just what exactly Amarra does that's all that difference from standard "bit perfect". Remember the goobledygook Sonic Studios came up with in that ridiculous white paper trying to explain the "complex mathematics" this program apparently did? With the advent of BitPerfect, Decibel, Pure Music, etc... There's really nothing special about Amarra; just variation of features. Nobody could ever explain in what way this software was worth $1000. It's good to see market forces cutting out the BS to truly reflect what products are truly worth although it took a couple years. Likewise, my feeling is that other items of questionable pseudo-scientific benefits will suffer the same fate (think obscene expensive cables, Synergistic Tranquility Base, etc...) ------- Archimago's Musings: A 'more objective' audiophile blog. |
