This should be free for people who purchased Final Cut on Mac

Why should we have to pay twice on Mac and iPad just to be mobile? And on top of that its a subscription? Horrible…
I shouldn’t have to pay if I already have it

I thought I could integrate this with my Mac since I already have the app there, but this just proves that Apple is a money-hungry company and will do anything to leech off their loyal customers.
Creator Studio isn’t ready for prime time
Nyima Wimberly
Final Cut Pro is beloved by professionals. That’s well-earned. But the new Creator Studio is buggy to the point that professionals should beware: use at your own risk. I’ve had this new version completely break projects (even very simple ones), requiring hours upon hours of troubleshooting and wasted time to get even partially working again.
Own the Mac version - Subscription on top No Thanks!
Pauljaf
REALLY NOT a great way to encourage the Apple community. Saying you need to pay perpetually for software you have purchased on a different platform ( I own the MAC version). THAT says Apple just wants to take as much from you as possible. Definitely NOT support the community to buy in and / or use the products to create. It’s expensive enough now they want to price it for elite only. Moving over to subscription for everything just pushes people away from the services. It’s a reason to move away from Apple. It’s a shame as it’s a great product.
