risk pulling facts from my arse here, but i doubt that sony vegas is even remotelly close to being the most powerful video editing tool for a PC computer.

Most professional video producers use Apple's Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premier. What the specific differences are, I do not know.

Yes, Apple is quite good for those who are into film/music producing but how could you leave out their customer support?
I've owned several Apple products in my day (relax, they were all just gifts) and have had several issues with their technology, but everytime I had to deal with the company they would send me a box and I'd mail it out only for them to return the latest gadget with very few questions asked.
In the end I think my parents got more than their money's worth from buying me those Christmas gifts because Apple would always replace them. Five times.
My dad dropped his IPad a couple of days after getting it and it smashed into pieces. They sent him a new one no questions asked.

To everyone saying not to use iTunes: a quick question
If you have an iTouch, can any other software be used with it? Like can I sync music through winamp or something? Because that is the only reason I use iTunes - my parents got me an iTouch a while back and so now I'm stuck with iTunes

I restarted my music library recently. Still have my old itunes library on my laptop with 2500+ songs but it has a bunch of crap I never listen to and I had been using pandora and spotify anyway. Bought a hard drive for my desktop and downloaded foobar2000- started fresh with music I actually listen to in good quality bitrates
Feels good man. I'd just take this opportunity to start over and add music as you want to listen to it. Also, don't reuse itunes and deal with all the extra bullshit they make you install and all the random popups that make you delete your library =)

Apple's iTunes fails.
Like Activision/Blizzard,
Their interests... lack.

That's pretty cool. Wish I still had a receipt so I could break my ipod.

The Mac equivalent?
Sony Vegas is not first in the realm of video production.
Final Cut Pro is the best editing program in the world. Period.
As far as effects go Adobe After Effects is far superior compared to Vegas.
