Someone give me quaintifiable evidence of FCPX market penetration. Features. Industrials. Commercials. Weddings. Where?

I’m not saying that at all. I’m saying the WB’s marketing dept. is calling the shots about what gets said about their movie and when it gets said. And Apple is happy to go along with that. Why would they piss of a movie studio with whom they have a lot of business (music/TV/Movies). They’ll shout it from the mountaintops when they can. Trust me.

I think that last year Warner brought in about 5 billion. That is their gross. Compare that with Apple’s profit. And tell me again that Warner has even the slightest influence over what Apple does.

So what is it? What are you looking for that Adobe or Avid can supply as well?

It. Has. Nothing. To. Do. With. Money. It’s how the glamorous entertainment business, of which Apple is a part, works. The End.

Warner is not calling anyone’s shots in this matter. If “Focus” is not on FCPX’s in action page then it is because Apple does not care to have it there.

You speak for Apple? Sorry man, you’re wrong.

When someone in show business tells you it has nothing to do with money then you’d better be damn sure your wallet is still in you back pocket.

I never said I spoke for Apple and I don’t have the slightest idea how you drew that inference. I am making a pretty reasonable case for why “Focus” is not in FCPX’s In Action page. Would you like to take the opposite case? What have you got on your side?

Well, that’s true. 🙂

But this Focus thing is about marketing, not money. And about companies who are doing business together working together. Apple may sell a few more copies of X by blabbing about Focus right now. In the process they would lose the cooperation of WB and possibly other entertainment conglomerates. Their Pro Apps profit wouldn’t cover that loss of goodwill/money, so they won’t do it. Maybe it *is* about money. Just not the way you think it is…
