Nope.  won't judge those who do. personal decision.  I just strongly believe Microsoft would botch it.They are not known for preserving brands of things they acquire and have nothandled a media creation product well since paint.

Microsoft was advertising for audio developers to help them develop a "new dimension in music making." Does that sound like Sonar, seriously? 
 
I think they are probably looking to do something different, something a bit envelope-pushing which enables total newbies to make music and which appeals to the kidz. I don't really see how a 30 year old bug-laden DAW that was popular with the over 50's would be part of that vision. 
 
Even if they bought Sonar's source code, I don't think it would be for anything other than stripping some parts out of it to use in something that would bear no resemblance to Sonar (and I can't see it being backwards compatible with Sonar project files, put it that way). 
 
I get it, "at least we're doing something." I have nothing against people signing a petition, I just think there's looking forward and there's flogging a dead horse.
