‘Looks like with the move to intel, they are consolidating the Final Cut Studio Apps. You no longer can buy them seperately. No more FCP standalone, no more SoundTrack Pro standalone, no more Motion 2 standalone.
The good news is that if you have been holding off to buy Final Cut Studio then this is your chance to save a heap of money. Because as of Feb. 1st, Apple is going to offer up a hell of an upgrade path to the new ‘universal Final Cut Studio’. Check these upgrade prices to the full studio:
Final Cut Pro 5….................................................$99
DVD Studio Pro 4 or Motion 2 or Soundtrack Pro…...$199
Final Cut Pro 4.X/HD or Production Suite….............$199
Final Cut Pro 1, 2, or 3…........................................$699
So basically you can run to Amazon.com, CDW, etc, while supplies last and order Motion 2 or SoundTrack Pro for roughly $269 and then in a couple of weeks you can upgrade to a full Final Cut Studio for $199… that’s $468 for Final Cut Studio!’
