Care to add clarity to that line of reasoning? Magix is not a small corporation without the resources to maintain software that's been their product staple for years. They're not constantly building new programs from the ground up. Surely you can come up with a better perspective? They just see consumers as sheep that will buy anything. You see it in the marketing. It's simple...cut cost on paying coders, add meaningless content for the zombies to buy, because it's marketed to Millennials that care more about phones and social media. The attitudes of those in control dictates direction! The programmers and little people aren't in control of what the powers that be says is the law to be followed.
You see this trend in business all the time. Someone with a degree and other credentials comes in with a
Donald Trump, bone headed attitude about how things are going to be run, with no regard for the fallout that attitude brings. It really is just that simple!
