I came to FCP for price and stayed with it partially because I liked its versatility and partially because it eventually overtook my client base. There was a time I couldn’t pay people to use Avid and many times I would’ve chosen Avid over FCP for stability and media management reasons. That most often proved not to be possible. If Apple really does commit to FCP X then I suspect I may be faced with a similar dilemma in the not to distant future. The bottom line is I wear the clothes the sponsor pays me to wear and I work with whatever hammer the client chooses.
