What ridiculous expectations!

Three months ago they might not yet have done enough "proof of 
concept" work to know that they would be able to make the deadline of 
their next product release. If they had announced and then missed it, 
either by being later or by shipping without it, they would have been 
universally pilloried.

It's completely unreasonable to expect a small software firm like 
MakeMusic to be able to turn on a dime on a project of this 
magnitude. It's good that they are going to make it for the next 
release cycle, but it's completely unreasonable for end users to 
expect that to have been a given, something that they should have 
announced months ago.

It's just an absolutely unreasonable expectation.
