The biggest factor now is the toolbox for SMARTMUSIC that will never be in Sibelius. As an applied teacher, you need to run, not walk, to the SMARTMUSIC site and get a license. I was just told that my Finale2005 is on the loading dock in Minnesota; however, the toolbox for turning FINALE into SMARTMUSIC files is a skill that every teacher will need in short order.

I have objected to Sibelius in the past due to its non-standard interface commands and its pageview-only presentation. OK, there's a way to bridge the gap with DOLET, but I usually have too many things to do to mess with another intermediary step.
