Joe,
Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately for me I can’t find a retailer that still has the upgrade version of Encore. I’ve googled and yahooed for Encore 2 without success. Most retailers use the phrases “Discontinued by Adobe” or “Withdrawn by Adobe” when inquiring of the product.
So I wondered if there was a technical reason that Adobe may have stopped selling the product… like “so buggy no one uses it or fatally flawed” before I start seriously watching for it on eBay. I figured if anyone knew the answer they would be on this forum.
