Steve Jobs is on an e-mail tear lately. In what may be his longest email response to date, Jobs addressed the future of Final Cut Pro.

None too pleased with the most recent Final Cut Pro update, a Mac Soda reader emailed Jobs to get some clarification regarding Apple’s continued interest in the software.

Steve, Getting worried about Apple’s interest in Final Cut. Last updates were not stellar. I heard a bunch of engineers were dropped too – give us a sign you still care about Pro Video, not just the iPad. Thanks, Alex

Steve Jobs responded:

We certainly do. Folks who left were in support, not engineering. Next release will be awesome.
