| When I developed Mac software I was not only often getting free software I was getting free machines. And Apple DTS would bend over backwards for me.
If Apple wants to be in the Pro audio market, they have to treat their 3rd party developers like gods. Dave Winer kicked off his pundit/blogger career writing "Platform is a Chinese Household" back in the mid-90's which I recommend to anyone who wants some perspective on this. And the things that brought that article about weren't as bad as what this sounds like. Then you had a sick company with (mostly) responsive developer staff. Now you have a healthy company and they act like this?
Digidesign is laughing its sides off right now...I can hear it all the way up the highway. |
