iZotope is Trashing Excellent Plug-ins, Just Cause They Can

 iZotope is discontinuing a bunch of plug-ins from Exponential Audio, a company iZotope acquired semi recently. Among the casualties are the wonderful Rs and Phoenix reverbs. Instead they are pushing for the bloated Neoverb, Stratus and Symphony plug-ins. Without any upgrade path for existing customers. Shame.

Other discarded apps from iZotope are Iris, Break Tweaker and Trash. I haven't used these as much I have to say. I guess iZotope don't care about these anymore. Do you feel old yet?

What's with this oversimplification of user interface in apps? I want progress info!

I really do not like that some Apple Apps do no display progress. New to the list, the App Store now does not show any progress when installing/updating.

Here is the App Store, I'm updating FCPX and it shows no progress whatsoever,  NOTHING.

Meanwhile, Launchpad displays Progress nicely. The slider, and "Downloading, 88MB of 150MB." Great!

Is this too much to ask?
