[Avid-L2] Re: DS is EOL

 

Precisely my point.

How can a product whose toolsets have been blatantly ignored for 10-15 years, and which are are woefully obsolete by any measure, be classified as the best editor on the planet?

Media Composer is not a modern, integrated postproduction tool -- it is $999 core product that requires thousands of additional dollars of software in order for it to be competitive with features of a $299 Apple product.
