This opens up a whole host of possibilities in the business world as well as private, (e.g. Much software has a lot of functionality that many users don't need but without it that software could be useless for the 10% of people that do need it. Of course this may be difficult due to resourcing levels.Ī 1GB download in 5 years may or may not happen but technology will have moved on and this size will not seem bloated nor take too long to download. It would be nice to see MS3 continue to get bug fixes for those users who don't want/need MS4. It doesn't sound immature at all, you just sound like a 'satisfied customer'. As should be expected, because it's mind-blowingly good. Only the optional Muse Sounds orchestral library is larger - and yes, a lot larger. Which makes sense, because from a feature perspective, there isn't that much difference. for MuseScore specifically, having more and happier users will help the bottom line of their business as well, so there is that.Īnyhow, FWIW, the size of the download for MuseScore 4 itself is not significantly different than for MuseScore 3. A heartfelt wish to make the world a better place has always been the primary motivating factor for open source software development. My suspicion is that once you experience for yourself how much better your scores look and sound - and how much more easily you can produce truly professional results than ever before - you'll look back on this post and laugh at your former self :-)Īs for drive: the push to constantly improve a free product should be easily understood as a desire to delight the 90% of users who do value improvements, as well the millions who have held off because it wasn't good enough or was too complex to learn. And making the program easier to use (improved user interface) is valuable also to the people who aren't current MuseScore users. I wouldn't call it "immature", but I would say that imagining that 90% of people don't want their scores to look better (improved engraving) or sound better (improved playback) is curiously naive :-).
