[Walter Soyka] "If Adobe keeps tightening integration and improving performance as they have been doing over the last few releases, and if they pay attention to offline/online interchange, media management, color management, and perhaps native DI codec support, I think that Production Premium will be a viable contender for high-end finishing work."
This statement reminded me of a 2008 blog post from Stu Maschwitz.

Very interesting in the context of this discussion, and the upcoming CS6 and Smoke 2012 release. :-)
