Final Cut Studio is Resurrected

Macrumors.com has this to say:

"We confirmed with an Apple telesales representative at 800-MY-APPLE that Final Cut Studio, part number MB642Z/A, is again available for $999 (and $899 for educational customers). The product is only available through the 800-number and is not available in Apple Retail Stores or on the Apple Online Store."

I'm no fan of FCPX at this point so I'm glad to see Final Cut Studio return even though I think it's nuts to continue to charge $999 for it at this point given the reception FCPX has received; it should be $499 or $599 at most but then that makes FCPX at $299.99 look overpriced. (I think it is)


Final Cut Pro X has, as of this post, 1961 ratings for an average of 3 out of 5 stars. Yikes.


Buy a copy if you can and let Apple know that Final Cut Studio (if you agree, that is) still out features FCPX by a long shot.


UPDATE:


The Loop says:


"As we’ve done before with many end-of-life software products, we have a limited quantity of Final Cut Studio still available through Apple telesales to customers who need them for ongoing projects,” an Apple spokesperson told The Loop."
