Knock on wood, a freeze, or glich, or program closure, shut down, is just not in my vocabulary. Hoster has passed even my critical demands. I use it before my show on auto, after my show. I've closed it down, just to have a fella give me a $20 tip to reopen, and let him sing a song to his wife. Close it down, reopen. After running hoster for 6 hours straight. If it ain't broke...don't fix it.

However with that being said. Thats works for ME. The new feature upgrades on hoster are always state of the art improvements. I have most of mtu's programs, and in my home studio i can rewrite song lyrics, in different keys, different tempo's etc. But i highly recommend in most cases for most folks to grab those upgrades, and song data base updates. However i don't mind typing in my monthly's. Small price to pay for a stable hosting program.....

George You're Right... Hoster will offer any KJ the most stable program that is constantly evolving to satisfy the feature requests of their loyal customers, and the cutting edge requirements to stay ahead of the competition... I, like you, don't use or require all the new features that are in the developement stages... but that being said, it's nice to have all the bells & whistles that the latest program upgrades offer, and then use what I want, and kind of experiment with the others once my feeble old brain catches up with the need, or if my competition is offering something that I need to integrate into my show in order to stay on top! Plus I can always reload a favorite version, if I wish to have proof that all is working correctly before I use the latest version in a show! Upgrade!!! MTU won't put out a product that didn't get the proper testing... Now N.A.S.A... that's another can of worms!
