I am not a professional engraver, yet the time saved every year
justifies most upgrades _for me_.
Sure, what you wrote was _your opinion_, it couldn't possibly have been
anything else.
Yet you generalized, that _in your opinion_ the improvements didn't
justify the upgrade price for anyone but professional engravers. To
which I express _my opinion_, that I think this is a completely stupid
generalization and depends entirely on how much you benefit from those
improvements, professional engraver or not.
Since you already expressed you won't upgrade unless they change their
copy protection policy, which _in my opinion_ won't happen for some
time, you will not benefit at all. Free will. And _your opinion_.
This discussion has turned into a completely pointless war on words, and
_I think_ we better leave it at this.

No single
version of Finale has ever had enough improvements in it to justify
the whole upgrade price from the previous version, in my opinion, so
I don't understand how people think they are getting their money's

What a completely stupid thing to say. It may not justify the upgrade
price for _you_, but this all depends on how many hours of work you
can save in that year, and how much those hours are worth for you.
Did you miss the "in my opinion" part of what I wrote?
Professional engravers have different needs. I excluded them from my
comments about those who upgrade very year.
For the rest of us, the vast majority of Finale users, the value just
isn't there.
And that doesn't speak well for the long-term viability of Finale.
