July 23, 2009 at 3:21 pm[Wayne Carey] “Apple still stands by the statement that Steve Jobs made saying they will never fully support Blu-Ray because they feel its a stepping stone in the advancement of HD to the Internet. “
Do you have a link to any articles actually attributing this quote to Steve Jobs, or are you paraphrasing? I was under the impression that the only public statement by Apple or Jobs regarding Blu-Ray was that it’s a “world of hurt,” and he was referring to licensing issues. Just curious, because in all of the discussions about this issue I’ve read, I have never come across a reference to anything like what you’ve written that wasn’t rumor or speculation.
That being said, I agree that Apple probably feels this way about Blu-Ray, but I wasn’t aware that they had made any public statements to that effect.

July 23, 2009 at 3:25 pmMaybe the Snow Leopard feature Grand Central Dispatch will address this… was just briefly reading about this.

July 23, 2009 at 3:35 pmAlso noticing the conspicuous absence of any mention of LiveType. Has it finally gone bye-bye and been absorbed into Motion 4?

Bag. Bag of hurt.

I am so excited about the rest of the features. BluRay isn’t at the top of my list.

July 23, 2009 at 3:38 pmUh Oh, No Live Type? Deal Breaker, unless you can load Live Type from the previous version.

July 23, 2009 at 3:43 pmWell… I remember hearing this at the last MacWorld conference. I’m not quoting Steve Jobs but mainly paraphrasing what I read about his speech.

July 23, 2009 at 3:46 pmRight. LiveType is no longer. You can still load it from previous versions. Much of the LiveType stuff has been folded into Motion.

July 23, 2009 at 3:48 pmWhy?
You can’t edit your text in FCP thru LiveType. You can with Motion files. Besides moving groups of text in LiveType was a real pain. There are so many reasons why LiveType was finally killed. Besides the ease of applying animations to text, LiveType was always a thorn in our sides.
