The Real Story of Audion

Posted by CmdrTaco on Friday November 12, 2004 @06:37AM from the something-to-read dept.

mijkal writes "Panic's Audion music software has been retired and made freely available. The developer has a nice write up on his experiences with Audion in relation to early-MP3 days, failed AOL deals, and the could-have-been iTunes app. It's an inspiring read on the history of a shareware developer and his adventures thus far."

How is a long, drawn out story about how you got fucked over by company after company "inspiring?"

I guess it could inspire you to just say "fuck it" and throw in the towel and use whatever ships with the computer instead.

Typical Mac fanboy by Anonymous Coward · 2004-11-12 08:49 · Score: -1, Flamebait

This guy quotes Steve Jobs telling him things that not even Bill Gates would ("you are the little cart, we are the freight train that's going ot crush you"), gets totally screwed by Apple copying their ideas, and still worships them. I guess Mac fanboys really like it up the ass. Inspiring story? Not to me, thanks.
