I don't understand this attitude. I bought Finale 2.01 in 1990 (or 1991?), and then bought Finale 3.5.2 when it came out, then Finale 97 and a little less than two years ago, Finale 2003. No one forces you to buy the upgrades every year. I evaluated each version of Finale based on the features included and upgraded when I thought the accumulated changes were enough to make a difference, to be worth the price. Moaning about throwning your money away seems ridiculously self- pitying. And, of course, the best way to tell Coda that they've screwed up is for large numbers of users not to buy the next version of the software. It's called market discipline. Without it, there's no reason for them to even try to get it right. -- David W.
