@pseudopop So, clearly, you’re a BFD3 user. BFD has had a challenging history with a good deal of software problems. How have things been lately?

BFD3 has now been out for 13 years. I had strongly considered buying it years ago, but was talked out of it by a friend who was once a big fan but experienced months of software issues that were common for Windows users. He eventually uninstalled it and won’t touch it anymore after the bad experience. I bought BFD Eco ages ago but never installed it after a terrible experience with the InMusic installer on my son’s PC where I ended up having to reinstall Windows due to the nightmare InMusic installer. I only found out afterwards that InMusic had known about these issues for several months — they were reported on their official forum. After I reported the issues my son’s PC experienced on the InMusic / AIR forum, a support employee acknowledged the problem, but it was several more months before they were resolved. That left such a bad taste in my mouth that I never bit on offers like this. However, I suspect that with SD3 as my go to and AD2 as my second choice, that BFD3 may be too big of a step backwards. But for less than the price of EZX, this is very tempting. I’d love to get your thoughts.
