Adobe Drops Mac Support For Premiere

Posted by simoniker on Monday July 7, 2003 @05:49AM from the edged-out-by-fruit dept.

Theaetetus writes "In a story on MacCentral, it's revealed that Adobe Systems is dropping support for the Mac in the new version of video editing app Premiere: 'If Apple's already doing an application, it makes the market for a third-party developer that much smaller,' said David Trescot, senior director of Adobe's digital video products group. In response to the news, Apple issued a statement welcoming Premiere customers to make the switch to the Mac and Final Cut Pro."

In this industry, Apple has about a 70% market share.

This is the second time in this thread you have perpetuated this myth. You must be living in the 90s, because that was the last time Apple has a 70% market share in the NLE market. It's more than 50% PC now.
