i think i own LRC?

I get what you're saying. Years ago, I got a "copy" of photoshop, and read tutorials and did things to learn how to use it. Then lightroom came out and I thought, "that should be a better option for what I do, so I'll download that and use it instead of PS." But after I downloaded LR, I discovered that the workflow was very different (surprising since it's the same vendor doing the same sort of work), so I never used it because the learning curve to get the same work done was a pain.

Fortunately, if I'm just tweaking raw out of my camera, I have the program from Canon that makes that workflow easy, so I use that for that sort of thing.
