Is it true that Vegas is DEAD?

Clearing stock? I like the sound of that! So that's an indication v14 is about to be unleashed.

SONY
"Make.Believe"

Everything's going to be ok.

If Magix goes the subscription route, I'm selling everything and getting out.

Don't take my word for it! I"m just guessing.

Still using 12 here, I didn't think there was a compelling reason to upgrade to 13.

Maybe to help make sure there is a 14? Just sayin :)

Absolutely - even if Vegas is dead with Sony, if people are still upgrading another company could be persuaded to buy if there are still sales. Upgrade to 13.

I read a LikedIn article announcing Magix took SMS, Vegas, DVDA, Sound Forge and Acid.

MAGIX! Pulled Vegas outta the Top Hat.

Grazie

Cannot read press release, anyone else having same issue?

I will say, at first blush, this seems like really good news. A bit scary but I can live with it, a company that might actually be enthusiastic about the product and move forward in a positive direction.

Having used Magix products in the past (they were cheap and had good rebates!), this might be good.

I was looking at Resolve, and still may give it a spin, but it will be nice if Vegas lives on...

Magix's Vegas equivalent is already Version 15 on Steam. I'd assume the full version of Vegas would also be on Steam.

Steam has a multi-platform system so it supports if the software has a Mac OS version or a Linux version. Hope Magix can take that to their advantage. Native Magix Vegas on Linux would be pretty awesome.
