Or worse, it might decide to keep 2006 as the working version for the
Mac platform, since most Mac users won't automatically be buying new
computers in January, when the intel chips are used, while bringing out
newer versions for Windows. Band-in-a-Box did such a thing (leaving the
Mac BIAB several versions behind and at a slower upgrade rate) and still
continues to thrive.
I think there is a difference here in that I don't think there is an equivalent program to match BIAB on the market, which gives them a little more leeway to adopt such a strategy. This is not the case in with Finale vs Sibelius.
Well, there is MIBAC Jazz, though the feature sets don't match exactly, it is still a play-along jazz program. But MIBAC STILL hasn't come out with a MacOSX version yet! I wonder whether BIAB might have felt the pressure a bit more if MIBAC had been more on the ball.
