One of the things I like about having FCP and Adobe out there is that it forced Avid into a SANE pricing structure. That’s good to know.

The last round was a $50 upgrade for Xpress Pro and $200 (if I remember right) for Media Composer--cheapest NLE upgrade I know of. Plus, all systems that were certified for the last build are certified for this one--no upgrades needed. The Avid of today isn't nearly as expensive as previous versions.

Works great for sending sequences back and forth. I use that even when my producer and I have the same version of FCP. There is always XML. Works great for sending sequences back and forth.

My only problem will be when the people I work with often upgrade, then I might feel forced to follow. This is one thing I really liked about Avid, sequences are backward compatibille (and being able to open individual bins from other projects...)
