Who’s opinion matters to you?
Who’s opinion on FCPX has mattered to you the most, or for that matter, who’s opinion do you want to hear?

That’s easy! How about a substantive “opinion” from someone (make that anyone) at Apple who will lay things on the line, call a spade a spade, and make a definitive statement about the direction of FCP X, its target audience, and what the in the Hell the EOL of FCS3, at this moment in time, had to do with any of it.

[Alex Hawkins] “Mr. Lawrence.”
I’m with you there Alex. that has more potential than hearing from Steve Jobs himself. At least more potential for accuracy.
And THNX for your honorable mention.

Well,
One thing I AM noticing is that on at least two of the major boards I frequent – and I’m concerned to note that this is actually one of them – there is a pretty evident sudden spate of “opinion” pieces that seem to argue in favor of a switch from FCP to Premier – and then I glance at the advertising sideboard and sure enough – I see that Adobe appears to be a significant board sponsor.
Let me be clear, I’m not implying – in any way – that either site is guilty of any form of bias whatsoever. And I know that none of my personal comments – pro OR con about anything – have ever been censored either here or on the other site I’m talking about.
I do know, however, that when I worked as a columnist in the magazine industry – the best publishers and editors had an IRON CLAD division between the advertising staff and the editorial staff. Personally, as a reader in my younger days – I always wondered when a magazine suddenly published a glowing review of a product I’d never heard of before – and two pages later I saw a full page clearly paid advertisement for that same product. But I’m skeptical that way.
I do think this discussion is important since I really enjoy this community and this board – and the DIGG example is fresh in my mind – where a site had an extremely robust and trusting community which literally went from TRUSTED to BUSTED in weeks.
THAT is scary.
For what it’s worth.

I saw a 14 year old doing some rail grinding with a GoPro on his skateboard. He’d probably be a good one to ask about FCP X, and what’s going on at apple. But on second thought, I don’t know if I’d actually trust his opinion, since he would have been born ‘last century’. Maybe I’ll hold out and hope I run into a ten year old.
