Well ain't that some bullshit. I have some hope for the future of FCPX, but there's no reason for it to have been released in this state. Nobody was chomping at the bit to pay $300 for a beta with significantly fewer features than the previous version. If this doesn't get updated fast I could see it being more damaging to Apple's position in the editing world than if they had just gone another year without updates. I mean, that would have hurt too, but releasing a product that can't export to tape? That's actively pushing people to look for alternatives.

butterypancakes posted:The dumbest thing I've read in a long time... and this last week on this side of the internet has been nuts. There's no ship to jump. People are fond of saying "it's a complete ground-up rewrite" to defend it, but the reality of that is that transitioning from FCP7 to FCPX is the same as going from FCP7 to Avid or Premiere. People can either stick with what they have (FCP7), or transition to a completely new product (Avid, Premiere, or FCPX). But the platform FCP7 users are on right now is effectively gone, with no more support and no ability to purchase further licenses. Going to FCPX is "jumping ship" as much as any other transition... the only difference being that it's at a worse place right now than the alternatives.
