Since PBB in place, should we continue to use L3 Sermon File add-in?

If this has been asked before, please don't flame me too bad. I try to frequent the forums but don't recall seeing it discussed. I know that the new Sermon File Add-in for L4 will use some aspect of PBB, but, I am wondering, should we continue to use the L3 Sermon File/Scan to L4 procedure since PBB is in place?

Is there any advantage to it? That is, since you could use PBB for incorporating sermons into L4 and the formatting features of PBB seem to be better than the L3 Sermon file add-in, is there any advantage to continuing to use L3 for sermon incorporation?

    The answer is we don't know. My guess would be that there will be a load from L3 function that puts the sermons into new sermon format (rather than as a book which is how they import now). Therefore, I'm inclined to stick to L3. But I could be totally wrong.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    I believe it will use full PB +  a web site. So a PB will provide a superior finished product as formatting + usability are almost the same as Logos resources. The trade-off would be the effort to convert your L3 sermon files to docx (unless you are good at macros).
