Finale vs. Sibelius

So, I currently use Finale Notepad and Printmusic, which are perhaps the hardest, most stripped down programs ever, but they are free/cheap. I have been looking at upgrading to either Finale or Sibelius, and after a lot of research, I am looking at Sibelius. From my experience, the interface is much more intuitive, and it offers more options for interfacing with midi programs/sequencer. Seems like Sibelius has been getting the popular vote, while most schools seem to get group licenses cheaper for Finale…Kinda like the mac you have at home and the pc you have to use at work.

This FORUM has some good insight.

This ONE too.
