Is it True?
Posted by Sandy Shapiro on September 1, 2011 at 3:54 pmI’ve been in the post industry for 10 years. Avid, but that turned into FCP – most of my colleagues switched to FCP too. There seems to be an uproar in the industry when we learned Apple was phasing out FCP and only having FCPX. Has anyone heard of Apple reinstating FCP due to the uproar?
Thanks,
Sandy

They are only selling ADDITIONAL FCP 7 seats to existing customers who have MULTIPLE FCP installations. They have not reinstated selling individual copies of FCP 7.
FCP is EOL. Time to look elsewhere…or use what you have until it no longer works (which is my plan…as well as going to Avid).
