His opinion is absolutely valid. If the "experts" (also referred to as fan boys) can freely insult and antagonize (subliminally or directly) those who are struggling, then don't expect it to stop. It really comes down to the bare facts: Pro Tools is a phenomenal concept but the product is unreliable for MANY not all customers. Until that changes, until Avid can deliver a fully tested and ROCK solid release that will function efficiently and completely on a wide array of systems, until they drastically reduce the price of the product that is essentially beta tested and troubleshooted at no cost to Avid by unsuspecting customers for upwards of a year after a release, until certain users on here change their demeanor toward unhappy people, this hostile environment is inevitable. So we can either respect each other's differences or continue on.
