How do you know the overall problem of a company?
And I still don't understand why contacting (and get a response from)
the CEO is crucial. From the CEO's POV, MM as a company would survive
without Finale. IMO, it would be much better to contact the manager for
the notation products.
No answer, not even a "thank you for your note," effectively proves to me
that the company's CEO knows the product is done for, and that MakeMusic
is paralyzed to do anything except issue their yearly subscription and
hope for the best in following Sibelius as long as it can.
If you can read that much into a reply you didn't get, I must say you
have a very good imagination or you're psychic in some way.
their precipitous failures in recent years.
It has nothing to do with recent years. Over the 10+ years I've been
using Finale, there has always been the same kind of arguments: Will
there be a new version? Is Coda/MM going down? Will there be any
updates? Why don't they officially visit the user forums? Why is the new
version so buggy? Why do they only include features noone wants and not
the features I need? And so on.
