Hi Mark,
 
Is that true?  Symphony was originally created as the top end of the MC family - then it disappeared - now it has reappeared as Phony Nitris.  I'd be curious to know whether or not you could export more from there since the code didn't originate with Softimage.
 
DS originated with Softimage and Microsoft on a very different path.  I don't know for sure but "Digital Studio" seemed to imply that it was being created to play nicely with Softimage3D (now XSI) and could have been the killer combination of 3D and editing with those two elements combined.  Avid never ran down that path - instead they spent their time trying to figure out how to make DS into a MC - and ended up separating XSI from DS completely.  That's my take - I could be way off.

In a word, "no."
 
You do finishing on a DS. It's the last step. One would presume that, once Avid kills the DS, you will have similar inabilities on the Symphony.

"...as a finishing system DS isn't built well to play with others."
 
Does that mean I can export to a Phony Nitris?
