Hi

Not an organ in danger, but widely used music notation software.  It seems that Avid (the current owners of Sibelius) have no concept of customer service - Sibelius staff have been sacked and the software "frozen".  Ridiculous for what is probably the most widely used notation software - at least in pro circles.

This is really bad news and will have serious implications for musicians and the music publishing industry.  Sibelius is far and away the best music software system.  I remember when I first got it (in the days when it needed an Acorn computer to run it), it took twenty minutes from opening the boxes to feeling at home using it.
