Sorry meant for the release date to be the last day of spring.

I say June 20th the very last day of Spring.

I had 3 drives go out within a month of each other after 3 years of constant running, it’s really a guessing game. Since then we purchased 2 8 drive raids for a fraction of the cost and have re-populated our xserve raid and use it only for temporary storage, nothing critical. It would be wise to get a new raid, you can still use your x-raid but only for non-critiacal stuff.

I didn’t say it was buried. There hasn’t been any major updates since FCS2 came out and I’m not sure there was a major change since FCS1 hit the shelves, at least none in the past 4 years. Even though Apple started off on the Blu-Ray consortium board they (Steve Jobs) have since taken a stance against Blu-Ray. If Apple was just a computer company then yes you would already have Blu-Ray Studio Pro years ago but it is no longer the case and Apple is going to great lengths to kill discs all together with the advent of the App Store. So as far as DVD Studio Pro goes it’s possible you can still purchase it in the future but don’t expect it to be developed any further.

I have an editor that uses an iMac over ethernet and had him switch over to a Mac Pro and asked him if he saw any difference in performance. Answer, Nope.

Here’s some food for speculation. I bought an upgrade the week before the demo for $299, the outside box said Upgrade but when I installed it, the software never asked for my Previous Serial Number. So I looked at the Key # in the package and low and behold it said “Retail”. Either they made a mistake or are quietly sending full retail to everyone.

Yeah Soundtrack Pro is done for,IMHO. However I would not be surprised if you see a Motion/Shake hybrid of sorts pop up. DVDSP was dead several Studio’s ago and will probably not be supported any longer.

The very fact that Apple hasn’t made posted anything on their website or made an official announcement other than the Super Meet tells me that they are not completely done with it.

I just bought a FCS3 upgrade for $299 and they gave me a full retail version. Not sure if that was intentional or not.

Multiclip Editing. Plain and Simple, other than that I think it’s time to think outside the box.
