Re: Bunim/Murray chooses Avid

[Chris Harlan] "What would be an interesting wrench for me is if Adobe can convince a few major boutiques to throw in with Premiere because of their deep involvement with After Effects. I would be happy to see some competition remain here-abouts."

With all due respect to Adobe, and to Dennis at Adobe, who frequents this forum, I just don't see Premiere as a real contender in the L.A. arena any time soon. The established ecosystem here has absolutely no ties to Premiere and no past experience with it. So, adopting Premiere at this time would have to be viewed as a big gamble, and in this economy the last thing companies need now is taking lots of risk.

The good news for those of us who may have previously been on the fence is that the choice has just become a whole lot easier.
