MOTU Sales Opportunity

Imogen Heap is unhappy with Avid and Pro Tools and tweeting about it.
Hey @AvidProTools I want to buy a new desk but I can't sell this ICON because you don't support it anymore. I'm £20k down! Ideas please!
She reads her tweets.

Imogen Heap is an impressive artist who has done a great job of staying on the bleeding edge of tech and innovating controller tech, all while doing very engaging song-writing.

I wonder if her influence would have any affect on a goliath like Avid.

At any rate, does Avid's not supporting ICON anymore mean she is trying to sell a brick?

I'm guessing if the ICON will run on an older version of PT, she could still find a buyer.
