The Notepad versions always stay the same. Its printmusic, allegro, or Finale Full that you want.

Here's the order of the different versions.

Notepad
Printmusic
Allegro
Finale Full

(I didn't include songwriter because it's just a usless version)

I'm not entirely sure how many staves you can use as you go up, but I know for a fact that you get to use more.

But Finale Full costs so much! Who can afford this? I don't.
Check out my arrangements! I mean it! Check them out!

That's why you get a torrent of it somewhere, that' how I got mine.

Finale/Sibelius should not be judged upon how they sound. They are sheeting writing programs, not MIDI programs.
If you want, go buy a set of MIDIs.
I used Sibelius at school the past year for AP Music Theory. And I have to say, it should be implemented onto the site.
It is much easier to write/compose/arrange with than Finale. Its interface and shortcuts are much preferable to finally. Very easy to use.
At least allow the option for .sib to be uploaded (when that comes back..)
To solve other concerns, it's only 10 bucks for the new Finale. If you don't wish to spend such a low cost for a genuine product, then maybe arranging isn't the best thing for you...

Sibelius sounds rubbish, but it is good- but finale is simple to learn. And if you have full then it sounds fab.

After months of mediation and exams, I return.
Probably not for long.

Very easy to learn. I'm still trying to learn sibelius.

Again...judging on sound quality shouldn't be used...Both programs can input better Midis.
Meh. Sibelius is much quicker when you learn it..which takes approximately as long to learn the keyboard shortcuts on Finale.
It's personal choice, which is another reason why both should be offered.

I don't really like Sibileus...just don't. I'm just love using Finale because it's the only thing I've used and I KNOW it.

Yeah, that does sound lame. I wish you luck on finding a new moniter.
