A couple years ago I spent a few hundred on various audio plugins for music production. I also spent a few hundred on a DAW with all plugins.
I was hooked by the flashy marketing and celebrity shilling, especially when I was stuck producing on the Corporate OS.
There’s plenty of FOSS plugins (including ones built into your DAW) that are at least as good as what Izotope and Native Instruments are selling for 100’s of dollars. Furthermore, they don’t have invasive DRM and don’t try to sell you features you don’t need.
