Nuendo 6 pricing announced

I am sure I used to get update emails about new Nuendo versions… but not this time. Where is it recommended we purchase - Steinberg Website or UK distributor?

Also, a couple of questions:

  1. Some prices on the Steinberg website are quoted with 20% (UK) VAT, others with 19% (German). Are the various figures correct? I assume that the shop will allow VAT to be deducted where appropriate, at the correct rate?

  2. I have been using Nuendo, and paying for upgrades, since version 1. But when the NEK was split off, I dropped it. I’d quite like to reinstate it… Upgrade from N5 to N6 is £233 inc 20% VAT; NEK is 203 inc 19% VAT (according to the webshop). That’s £436 total. But Upgrade N2 or N3 to N6 + NEK is £407 inc 19% VAT. That’s a bit less. Can I do that from N5? Seems an odd pricing structure, whatever…

Thanks.

Mark.
