In the 80's and 90's mastering houses were indeed terribly fussy about how you submited work. But let me point out the bleeding obvious. Since the proliferation of digital, mastering houses will take your work any way you would like to give it to them.

I think the single greatest boon to mastering engineers is DDP export. Makes my life and their life easier. Even though SONAR itself doesn't have it built in, there are programs you can buy that do the job. 

You guys be sure to kill the lights when you leave...this place stopped being relevant when Gibson bought it.

I'm outta here no more reason to even have this place in my bookmarks.

Selah.

Looking forward to trying it out when I finish my first project in SO3 Craig:)

Flash drives from what I have read they have a limited number of writes, or that is they were never designed to last forever.  So you would still have the backup problem if you were to run your DAW that way.

Ooh...I guess he showed us.
He left.
He even unbookmarked us. 

Is he really gone?  Now we're just left with this Craig guy.
 
Thanks for everything over all the years, Mr. Anderton.  This stuff is clearly your love and your passion, Craig.  Otherwise you'd just be bitter like . . .

If there is one thing I've learned over the past week is that everyone is grieving in different ways. Not only grieving but people are also concerned about the future of the software they have paid for. Sure we have been promised an authorization but we were also promised life time updates. This can leave some of us on edge.
 
Every one is different and that doesn't excuse Psychobillybob behavior (some of his comments)
But sometimes it is better to just walk away and ignore it then escalate it.

I wouldnt worry too much about it Chuck. Most of us would prefer to chat with the positive and generous people who hang here, but we are all big boys and girls. Sometimes it doesn't hurt to call out someone who comes in swinging from the shadows and clearly has an agenda. Not a big deal. The world will continue to turn even without his precious bookmark:)

Getting unbookmarked hurt... There was no need to go that far!
