Oh, d'oh!  Did not know that!  What a load of bollocks! :)

I bought it, its hell worth it - of course its a lot more DAW than you probably need, but hey .. the discount pricing makes sense and is worth it, in my opinion.  The updates are awesome and the rate of improvement of this DAW astounds me on a regular basis.  Plus, the new theming engine is going to kick ass.

But, yeah, it may be more than you need just for basic MIDI I/O .. nevertheless, worth investigating in case you feel like it might one day be suitable for more-than-MIDI tasks.

Let us know how you get on!  Intuem is really sexy, if you get into it some more I'd really like to know about your experiences ..
