Music Software Popularity Index - 2007 Q3
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 20, 2007 -- Digital Music Doctor announces the results of the Music Software Internet Popularity Index for Third Quarter 2007. As in all previous releases of this analysis, Digidesign Pro Tools holds a commanding lead. However, there was a significant amount of juggling in the annual averages for the other positions. Image Line FL Studio edged ahead of Steinberg Cubase to be in second place for the first time, and Cakewalk Sonar moved to fourth place replacing Adobe Audition. MOTU Digital Performer which had not been included previously because of statistical issues, was introduced into the index this quarter and came in at seventh place ahead of Sony Sound Forge and Acid. Apple Logic climbed back into the top ten replacing Ableton Live and moving ahead of Sony Acid.
The ten most popular music software products on the Internet, based on recent search engine activity are:

7. MOTU Digital Performer (2.0)

9. Apple Logic (1.7)
10. Sony Acid (1.5)
This index is based on a four-quarter average of Internet search activity on Google, Yahoo, AOL and MSN. Collectively these 4 search engines represent more than 91 percent of the searches on the Internet. Over 100 search terms are used to construct this index, and 16 music software products are tracked quarterly.
