The latter. I can, for instance, drag my Finale files to TextEdit and force-open them that way.

You can also right-click (control-click for one-button folks) and select Open With...

You can also select the file, hit command-I for file info, and change the Open With... default to whatever you want. You can also make ALL files with that type open with the new app, which caused me problems when I set Preview to be my default .pdf reader. As it turns out, Finale can only use Acrobat Reader for the manual, so I kept getting error messages until I changed those files back again.
