[james carey] “You are a bulldog, I give you that.”
that, apart from anything else, is true. If chris’s perceptions of risk, reward and the future actions of the professional market here are correct, then, like about five hundred posters, myself more than anyone, are going to owe him a beer, in fact I may owe him all the beer.
It’s just that I truly think, on a deep level, Apple are gone. The new XCode apparently largely demands unified single screen interfaces, said the canary in the coal mine – Apple, that weird creature, is getting ready to go off for a walk somewhere. They’ve thrown away nearly every pro app they’ve ever owned in preparation – they have, you know, emptied their pockets.

ah gimme a break.
“Apple doesn’t care about the pro space ”“The pro market is too small for Apple to care about it.”
They Don’t Care About The Market We Comprise. They Are Not Qualified Statements. Expecting To Get Software To Meet Your Needs From A Vendor Who Doesn’t Care About Your Market Is A Problematic Position.

[Chris Kenny] “Some people have bought into an elaborate narrative of Apple abandoning the pro market, but the actual evidence that supposedly supports this narrative is fairly weak.”
one more time: the guy who engineered FCP for six years at apple and was there for the ramp up to FCPX, has just said the following:
from his piece on his blog: https://sachin.posterous.com/why-apple-built-final-cut-pro-x“Apple doesn’t care about the pro space ”
“The pro market is too small for Apple to care about it.”

[Walter Soyka] “Apple’s recent actions around the Pro Apps and in the professional space, going several years back and culminating in last week’s release of FCPX and EOL of FCP7, have caused reasonable people to reasonably question Apple’s role in the professional market.
“There. Somebody stop and photograph that sentence. That’s it for me.
And there is valid reason for the suspicion: the guy who engineered FCP for six years at apple and was there for the ramp up to FCPX, has just said the following:
from his piece on his blog: https://sachin.posterous.com/why-apple-built-final-cut-pro-x“Apple doesn’t care about the pro space ”
“The pro market is too small for Apple to care about it.”
I mean, how much more clear do we need it?Apple Do Not Care About The Market We Comprise.
That Is Problematic If We’re Expecting To Get Software Off Them To Meet Our Needs.

I still fantasise that there will be some formal japanese surrender of his position where he just like hands over his flag and breaks his mouse over his knee.
I have gone way too far down the rabbit hole here myself.http://www.ogallchoir.net

but chris, well actually, that was an incredibly prescient posting, but still:
That like, is, you know, the guy who was coding FCP for six years, he was there when FCPX was cranking up – he definitively says FCPX is a prosumer app for a prosumer market. Thats who apple is going for. to quote him directly for a second.
“Apple doesn’t care about the pro space “
and
“The pro market is too small for Apple to care about it,”
I mean well, this is going to be tricky for you Chris, I am extremely curious to see how you’re going to turn this one around.
Because Chris, if the app does restore professional features like.. in and out points that sustain, markers on the timeline, and the ability to select clips without having the playhead jump to your location… ahem… it will be, to a certain extent, happy chance, it might work out, but apple is in no way focused on the professional market. That guy just said so. He seems like he would know.

it’s crazy – a week ago I would never have thought of premiere, I had no idea what shape it was in as an application, and this with me starting in design with AE, photoshop, illustrator, I still use them all the time. It just never entered my head.

yeah, they’re hungry like. We pay for the software – that’s a big chunk of their revenue. we get paid, they get paid. I like that.
As opposed to our current existence as unnoticed bacteria living in the armpit of the behometh named Aplha Omegahedron, or Apple humanities or whatever it is they’re calling themselves.. They’re off trying to bend spacetime and redefine human existence in a series of permanent exploding revolutions.
So that’s me not getting the source viewer back then.http://www.ogallchoir.net
