This was a heated debate/argument over at cycling74 max/msp forum.
After the upgrade to Max 5 (which is SO much better than max 4), pluggo no longer worked. About a week or two ago cycling74 announced they were disconinuing pluggo support, meaning 3rd parties could no longer code using max/msp and sell to individuals using free runtime (I think).
Anyway, as you know Tritone Digital is coded using max/msp so that kind of messed them up. Not sure when they are going to switch, but it's kind of ironic as I was just about to purchase some of their plugs, which I think sounds great. Went to their site and saw the homepage
.
Cycling74 is really focusing their efforts right now on Max for Live, which is an integrated max/msp within the Live interface. I'm looking forward since I use both programs. Lots of heated debate over this at the max/msp forums as well.
