Re: [Avid-L2] Avid needs to become a PRIVATE company!

Adobe is not quite there yet, but soon will be.

http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeanywhere.html

Obviously it will take some time to prove itself, but based on Adobe's experience with collaboration in the still images arena, I think they will succeed.

The idea of having what is essentially a centralized render farm doing all the work and just sending a single stream to the clients for viewing is potentially huge for people who work from multiple locations.

Most of my clients store their media on a SAN at work, and need to mirror their media to portable drives when the need to work from home. Not having to do this would be huge.

The sort of thing you may see in large reality tv scenarios or content heavy tv shows? I always worry that if Avid ever went under, the large operations would struggle to find something as seemless as MC with an ISIS etc. I'd like to know if anyone else is up to the job in terms of being stable in a very large operation, everyone I seem to read singing the praises of FCP X or Premiere seems to be working on smaller scale productions which is fine but how do those products scale up?
