Re: Editing scenario - Building applications at this level is not easy

[Herb Sevush] "alright, as what has Apple told you about fixing product bloat? It might be interesting to the other thousands of editors that are concerned, which is why communicating publicly is better than communicating privately.
"

Firstly Apple don't communicate publicly about issues, they haven't for years, certainly as long as I've been using FCP, I have no idea if they have contacted anyone privately about the bloat issue, but if they have ,chances are that they would have asked them to not make their discussions public.

Looking around the forums, project bloat doesn't appear to be an actual issue for most Editors in real world use. Sure it's a problem and it needs to be fixed but there's much more moaning about tracks and audio than project bloat so if you are Apple what are you going to concentrate your resources on?

Good on Adobe for being so public about issues with their software, it's a great marketing tool and it's obviously helping them to win over users from FCP.
