True about adobe benjamin,
But if "we are to believe Apple, they are going to expand the functionality in
FCPX in the future." why don't they sell fcp 6 anymore? If the pro market is serious for them they would have given the pros a way to use version 6 or a good upgrade path to the future. These pro users don't want a solution they can use in a year, they make a living out of fcp TODAY and hopefully tomorrow. I think apple really changed there minds and want to be in another segment of the business. If some third party developers find a way to optimize it they are fine with it but that's it.
If you run a business you want to feel confident the investments you do will be in products of companies that are serious about your type of work in the long run. That's maybey the worst thing abou fcpx . You can't trust apple anymore.
