John,

… only if they sell hardware to go with it, or perpetually rent it.

Apparently the viable business models for software are dwindling.

If the guys that make X2Pro could make an AEtoMotion app buyable off the App store, it would certainly be a thing. I don’t expect everything under the sun to work, but projects that are just pre-rendered motion graphics could probably import relatively easily. That would be a huge help.

While they’re making stuff, how about an apple script that automatcially authorizes and deauthorizes creative cloud so you can work on a different system. That would also be pretty awesome.
