...A nice iPad program could introduce many non-pros to SONAR which is where the money is (100s of millions of users as opposed to 1000s of pro studios). I'm hoping the OSX code is being architected in a way that could eventually provide a SONAR Lite for iPad...multi-touch production is awesome.

It's cool Bruce. Btw, veggie pizza for you. ;)

Yes I think if they didn't pre-announcement the announcement, and revealed all 3 of those things on June 1st, then it would have been better. But at the same time it generated a lot of hype and interest so I guess it balances out.
You open your pesent before Christmas then on Christmas day you feel like you didn't get anything as you watch the Mac kids open their present. I get it.

So when we heard the announcement on June 1, some of us felt it was a bit of a letdown, given the hype that CW created around this announcement. In essence, there wasn't actually anything new on June 1 for current SONAR users.
After announcing the lifetime update deal, with the understanding that that was just a small part of it, it's silly not to expect people to be let down. #Sonar4Life - Yay. Except that the announcement was handled completely wrong and resulted in a lot of hurt feelings for people who weren't eligible #Sonar4Mac - Utter BFD-Meh for those who aren't on Mac. #Sonar4You - "Hey, we've got this great news - we are going to keep providing the type of updates that you have been paying for!". Granted CW has been doing a really good job of this sort of thing, but that's not an announcement worthy of a pre-announcement.

It's actually more ironic to be complaining about people complaining about the original complainers IMO. The original complainers obviously have no problem with complaining and started the whole malarkey. The people who complained at the 'originals' may not like constant cavilling over trifles-- from the exact same posters-- time and time and time and time and time again... especially when the complaints seem capricious and frankly stupid.

"It's a societal disease... just look at climate change, threatening rapidly approaching extinction for us and most other species... if you tune into any of the zillion blogs/groups addressing this situation you will see a vocal group of deniers blathering garbage about every aspect of the situation... combine this with narrow focused "me"ism and you have your answer."
Rapidly approaching extinction? I guess those lifetime Sonar memberships won't turn out to be such a good deal after all.

One upside to the OSX push has been alluded to and now "set," specifically many long-standing bugs that have been buried so deep in the code that no one knew how to fix them must be addressed (to some extent) with the porting of this code. So much legacy code is "built upon" by so many companies that eventually it turns into a plate of spaghetti, and no formal code mapping exists as to what is there. As employees who wrote/knew that code leave/retire, the company is left to only "build upon" and snowball the issue. Hopefully the OSX announcement implies addressing this in earnest.
