hmm ...

what do you mean 'good management'-
the software makes money?
it's bloated with features?
it makes projected release dates?
it doesn't crash?
it makes efficient use of computing resources?

think: m$ word, m$ windows, m$ internet exporer

i don't know too many music examples because the last music software i
bought is 'finale' from mark of the unicorn [yes, i am *that* old
....]. i've been quite happy with csound, pd, audacity- in fact, it's
been the start of a renaissance for me in understanding digital signal
processing.
