But then Apple end-of-lifed Shake, and there are no signs of its successor (codename Phenomenon) anywhere yet. Being "Borged" by Apple can be risky, sometimes: Logic Audio for Windows was killed in spite of its large userbase, and then it's been a very long time until they happened to pay attention to it again and revamped its UI, tools and suite organization.

Also, you get things like the new iMovie which has almost nothing to do with older ones: completely different philosophy and workflow, no plugin compatibility, etc.

Apple can be too capricious sometimes. I'd rather have them not touch any 3D company. Final Cut Studio devoured about ten video application development companies and product lines itself.
