Everyone here is looking at MS from the viewpoint of MS being a music reading app, which it is, but I think a re-evaluation is in order. Basically MS is a program that organizes/catalogs and displays pdf and jpg files along with some audio capabilities, designed specifically for musicians and wannabe's. The program can catalog and display any pdf or jpg in any order, by groups/setlists, or singly. These capabilities can also be used for:
1 - Auto scrolling picture frames, possibly with audio comments, eg., family photo's, vacations, etc.
2 - Presentations, with a mix of pdf's and jpg's and, possibly, audio.
3 - Instruction manuals with diagrams, possibly, audio.
4 - Recipe's.
5 - Anything that uses cataloging and displaying.
With this as a basis, v4 could be frozen, bug fixes only, and presented to other markets. Folks interested in improvements/upgrading could be pointed to MS2.
This is a re-purposing of work that Mike knows and maybe another income source. I had much more in my head when I woke up at 0400 this am, this is just an outline, but I'm not that good at expressing them in detail. Besides, why dump a good program that is perfectly capable of being an entry level app?
There are always negatives, one is keeping up with an old program, another is v4 must have a rock solid interaction with external storage and compatibility/conversion with the v5 database [for upgrading to v5], probably others.
