hamada2003 Jun 18, 2013 2:31 PM (in response to MD Optofonik)i wonder what changed at adobe in the past two years?
what kind of ivy league m*r*ns have now the power at adobe?
the managers should be fired.
there is only one hope.... the adobe stock will suffer this year and they come to their senses again.
it´s really sad to see adobe becoming such a stupid company......

Harm Millaard Jun 18, 2013 3:16 PM (in response to MD Optofonik)That shows that it is a martket that is (un-)officially dead by Adobe standards.
I have lost my confidence in their sanity...

Bill Hunt Jun 18, 2013 6:30 PM (in response to MD Optofonik)BD sales of commercial titles are up, but not up to what had been projected. The sales of blank media have been down, to the point of being almost stagnent (and probably directly because of Sony).
While I do not support Adobe's decision, I can see where the various financial officers might be hesitant to keep investing in a program, that is basically a rewrap of the Roxio/Sonic AuthorCore modules.
Glad that I own the perpetual licenses to what I do, and they can have that software, when they pry it out of my cold, dead hands.
Still, with stockholders, and market shares driving things, I suppose that I cannot fault those decisions, regardless of how negatively they impact me. I have not been in the board room for any of the meetings.
Streaming delivery does seem to be the wave of the future, but deliverable media is not dead - DVD sales are actually up, though maybe not by the same percentages, that Wall Street might like?
Good luck to us,
Hunt
