The Logic Off Topic list

Yes, but companies like Steinberg and Emagic provided over the past 
years affordable, comparable and workable solutions for musicians at 
a lower price level. And due to open standards (like VST) you have a 
broad product choice.

My worry is that Emagic will go the Digidesign route:
own standards, less integratable with 3d party products,
higher prices,
diminished platform comptability,
and ultimately losing ground against other competitors (especially 
Steinberg).

And I'm looking at this purely from the (Emagic)user perspective: the 
user who has invested time and money in Emagic products and now finds 
him/herself in restriction of choices.
And this is what already is going on now and might get worse over 
time if you decide to stick with Emagic.
