PT has IMHO

-the best automation from any DAW
-the best routing options (almost no limits)
-the fastest editting (doesn't mean the most precise)

Combine these and you'll get the most flexible DAW.

The little features the program has is its power. What would you like your analog 2" to do? Make coffee?

I am very thankfull PT is not Fruity Loops, I'd not be able to get my job done. I also like that its features are well thought about before incorporated and cluttering the program with useless crap.

But other DAW's are quickly catching up. Native is now a real alternative, that's also why you'll see that Digi has enhanced the integration of RTAS plugins. If you'd have a fast Mac or PC you can benefit of its power too besides the DSP cards.
