The reason I have a hard time swallowing that is that we're not talking about just fixing 2004 -- we're talking about bugs that have gone unfixed for *years*. If 2003 had been perfect, I would have forgiven the flaws in 2004. But as things are, we *keep* throwing good money after bad. Yes, there are new features each year, and some of them are quite useful, but to me it doesn't quite compensate for the things that remain broken.Yeah, and Apple is doing this with OS X........I don't see the majority of Mac users complaining about things. I would say that every version of OS X that has come out is better than the previous version. And this holds true for Finale as well.....
Coda right now is basically working on a yearly subscription model for a product which in many ways resembles a late beta. Whereas if they took an extra year and fixed some of the things we all complain about, they would have a better product, a happier customer base, and a better chance of steering new and existing users to their product.
You're taking a long-term view of this. I'm tired of the long-term view. My short-term view is that Coda has not yet delivered the functional product I paid for.
Then email them and bitch about it. I complained when they let the ship date slip for a second time and they took another $20 off the price of my upgrade.
