Note that I tried Finale many years ago but do not use it, so I’m just thinking about others.

At least MM has announced that Finale is dead. It’s good that they’ll leave the license servers on after 8/2025.

Notion 7 was "coming soon" in 2021 when the last update of 6 was released. It can’t handle 64bit only VIs. Fender has kept the iPadOS version and other PreSonus apps going while letting the desktop notation app wither away.

Don Williams told us that Overture 5 would receive a maintenance update "soon" November 2020. We’re still waiting. Overture/Encore 6 has been promised three years now. We talk now and then but it’s been awhile.
