They sent me a "special" upgrade price, which I bought into, and paid for the upgrade for Studio Vision - then a few weeks later they went out of business. One last deal to screw the customers. As an owner of Personal Composer from 1986, which similarly went under, I am well aware of the fragility of these companies. Thats why I harp on emagic so often - because its a marriage of sorts - us and them - we pay them and we invest the time to learn their system and have alot of music in logic songs. So its in our interest to have them successful. Unfortunately they won't get it through their thick heads that user friendliness and convenience are important factors. Maybe they ask the guys at Abelton to give them a few lessons.
