If it doesn’t yet have a feature you need you can continue using FCP7

Except, apparently, you can't buy FCP7 any more (at least that's what I've heard from one guy I know in the industry). Which means that if you're a Final Cut Pro house and need to hire more staff, I guess you're kind of stuck going the pirate route for getting editing software for your new employees.

Sure, that’s exactly the problem. I was writing about what Apple should have done, not what they actually did.

Good catch - people will just pirate FCP7 which Apple won't care at all about (unless FCPX flops).

[ugh]

I don’t think companies would dare and pirate software.
