Where is MC28?
JimH:
It's on the Download Page.
An MC28 license will also work with the latest releases of MC27 (27.0.79 or higher).
If you purchase an MC upgrade now, you will receive an MC28 license that also works with MC27.0.79 or higher.
How to Upgrade.
New in MC28

I've been buying MC since MC22 and do not hesitate to recommend it as SOTA whenever I'm asked what I use to organize and play my media. Unfortunately, I was in Italy since mid-April and just got back, missing the pre-order period. I got plenty of notifications of the sale, but the hotels where I stayed were blocking the transaction. American Express said it was not them, but apparently the DNS service that these Italian hotels use sometimes does not allow credit card transactions with some vendors. So I bit the small bullet and paid the small up-charge for the Master license. That is how important your software is to me. I will confess that I actually thought I had until May 28th to get the best deal, but I was careless (and busy with meetings and family) and saw MC28 as May28. I think that drinking delicious wine from Tuscany with my meals most days contributed to this error. ;)
As an aside:
Since I assembled my own media server at home, and use Archlinux and Plasma/KDE with an older Haswell processor, I find that Linux is better suited when it comes to preventing (or reducing greatly) any audio dropouts. I can "force the processor to give JRiver its undivided attention" by suppressing other processes during program material play. In Windows, I encounter an occasional dropout when an errant background system calls for the processor to do something. Even following the advice that Steinberg* has on their Digital Audio Workstation site regarding tuning Windows 10 does not completely eliminate dropouts. (NVIDIA cards' Windows software can cause these dropouts, but the proprietary NVIDIA Linux drivers don't seem to do this.)

If v28 is not out yet, why are you already selling upgrades as if it's available today? This isn't the way. I paid for an upgrade with the full expectation that version would be available immediately. I'm a long-time user but this make me wonder if I should be doing business with JRiver.

Pre-orders and releases of new major versions have always worked this way, there's a topic about JRiver's business model here: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,81987.0.html

The email is clear about this, but I'm sorry you misunderstood. Early releases will begin about July 1.
