I'm am very happy to discover that PhaseOne has taken over this once excellent product from Microsoft. They seem to have done a quality job with the transition so far, and brought back a unique and valuable software package from near death.

I am not a professional photographer, but I wanted a digital photo archive that could do many things iPhoto can not. Among them: share the database with others using a Windows version of the client. So far, I have found the current version of Media Pro to be stable, powerful, intuitive, and (even) aesthetically pretty classy.

This is my first review for MacUpdate, motivated by the relatively poor and (in my opinion) silly and/or off-base reviews of Media Pro that have come before this. I am really pleased with what PhaseOne has done with Media Pro so far, and I suspect many others are to.
