If you run OS X Lion you NEED it. That means nobody with an 11R can buy a new Mac and run on it without also shelling out $500 for an upgrade, all the while knowing that the exact same hardware we bought now ships with 10 and the expansion pack for free. Not sure why people seem to feel the need to defend Avid on this - they made a deliberate business choice to do this. And a lot of disgruntled users will make other decisions about what vendor gets our money in the future.
