    And I will be holding your hat in my hand in order to make it easier for you to eat it. Or I will apologize deeply and hope that someone will hire me as an FCPX editor (I do have experience.)

    [TImothy Auld] “No. NDA’s do not exist between corporations. That is governed by contracts. NDA’s exist between corporations and individuals. Cite me something to the contrary.”

    NDAs are contracts. The parties they bind may both/all be corporations.

    I’d cite the NDAs that my company is bound to as examples, but I can’t disclose that without opening my company up to serious liability.

    Instead, I’ll cite Wikipedia:

    “NDAs are commonly signed when two companies, individuals, or other entities (such as partnerships, societies, etc.) are considering doing business and need to understand the processes used in each other’s business for the purpose of evaluating the potential business relationship.”

    Dang, scooped by Walter Soyka again! 🙂

    Tim, I would be nervous to even HINT at things covered by NDAs which were signed by my company (which I’m obviously bound to). It really is that big of a deal. I’m sure Tim Wilson or Dennis could tell you all about it. 🙂

    [TImothy Auld] “Yes, I hear this all the time. No one (certainly not the top posters) have characterized anyone who might have a problem (any problem) with FCPX as people who are are to old/stupid/set in in their ways to not understand what FCPX has to offer.”

    This is the “dinosaur” argument that comes up from time to time. I have looked to see where this frame of mind comes from, and it doesn’t seem to come the FCPX side of the debate. I have never called anyone a dinosaur, or old, or stupid, but I will defend why I use fcpx. I don’t really care what other people use, and generally, I like hearing about other strengths of other video applications.

    If you are taking to me, directly to me, about something I’ve said to you, please let me know, point it out to me, and I will certainly rectify it.

    And apparently, I really, like the overuse, of the comma. It’s highly, satisfying.

    I respect you trying to revive the debate Tim, this forum was a lot of fun for a long time. But FCPX is long dead – not just rotten or even a skeleton but reborn into a field of peaceful flowers swaying lazily in the breeze.

    (To head off the usual suspects: Not that it’s not a fairly functional -and certainly unique- piece of software for those that like it. Which may, every couple of years, include at least the rumour of a TV show or feature. But really, for those of us who get told what we can cut on, the debate is sadly long over.)

    MotionVFX. How the hell are they staying in business? Who are they selling their insane amount of plugins, templates, etc to? Corporate? Weddings? Small TV stations? India? I don’t know but a lot of people must be buying. And why is REd Giant and so many others interested? They must have research and quantifiable sales numbers. I don’t see any developers dropping out. If say the products are increasing faster than It ever was for FCP legacy. Why are all these 3rd parties bothering?
