Re: Hoster Shutting Down - Stopped Working

I to appreciate all the hard work dale does here. Thank You very much for your continued help and support, i really appreciate it.

With that being said, i can also understand Ed's frustration, and think he has some very valid points. I have been with mtu since 2001, own all their software products, not just hoster. Hoster can be very frustrating at times, and costly to those users who continuly have interrupted shows. I have stopped doing the upgrades for the most part on hoster. I have followed every upgrade, just to realize a trade off, from one upgrade to the next. And the latest downgrade of features for us lite users was the last straw for me.

Microstudio is another problem child right now for 64 bit. Can't write a backup disc, or a finished product from KHpro if you have 64 bit. So i cannot upgrade my old 32 bit XP workhorse which is going on 6 years old. Dell has sky rocketed the price of their 32 bit computers, knowing guys like me, have no choice if we want to continue with some software. So there is enough blame to go around. So far...i'll stay with mtu like i have for going on 10 years now. Do i recommend hoster?...at this point, yes. We'll see how we do in the months to come.

Like i said, i'm a little p'eed with the fact us lite users have now lost out on the features, the standard hoster users get. Wasn't that way from the start. If i ordered the full hoster version, it would be a waste of money, and i'm not making any with karoke right now. No idea what i'd do with the second copy of hoster anyway.....but i don't own the company. God Bless
