If they do that there won't be any reason to *not* move to Sibelius!
This indeed is very disturbing news -- why a company would take a (until
recently) perfectly good working tool in an application, one which many
people have grown to depend upon, and which even the company used to
tout as the preferred tool for anything other than novice or very casual
users, and then intentionally phase it out escapes my ability to understand.
But that does explain why they haven't jumped to fix that 9-key
enharmonic flip bug.
It seems as if MakeMusic has been taken over by employees whose mantra
is "Let's find every possible method we can to drive our long-time users
over to Sibelius. And by making a less serious effort in the
educational marketplace so that Sibelius completely takes that over, we
can finally get rid of the nuisance called Finale and concentrate on our
first-love, SmartMusic."
