This video—published just one week but I only watched just now—was how I learned that Finale was finally discontinued last year. Wow.

I'm not a music student, I studied communications in college, but I did dabble in a little bit of music back then and I once used Finale to write down one single little, /very amateurish/ classical guitar etude in Finale that I had messed around with on my guitar for years by then at the time. The finale file might still be somewhere among my old hard drives & old PCs, might even be somewhere in my Google Drive or MS OneDrive or DropBox or something. I doubt I could convert it to MusicXML to rescue it at this time, even if I could find it again.

Anyways, loved the video. Very surreal. One hour long fair warning.

(And yes my use of em dashes in this post is intentional.)
