Q&A: What Video Editing Software Should I Ask For?

Question by Ninja!: What Video Editing Software Should I Ask For?
I really want a decent video editing program, something better then Windows Movie Maker. It doesn’t need to be super fancy, but I would like some cool features. I mainly make (cospay) music videos and AMVs. Along with some skits and what not (though I don’t really need it for those). I’m asking for a better program for Christmas, but there’s a budget. It can’t really be more than $ 100 (though cheaper would probably be better for whoever buys it 😉
The 2 programs I’ve been looking at are Vegas Movie Studio HD 9 ($ 44) or Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10 ($ 94). And I’m not sure which one to pick. I’ve looked through reviews, the overviews of the products on the site, videos on Youtube. And I still am not sure which to pick.

What do you think would be best?

I have used both Vegas Movie Studio 9 and Platinum 10 and have just recently received the Platinum 10. The Platinum is better value as it doesnt just have one program it has an amazing vegas studio editing software, sound forge, DVD Architect (Create your own dvd menu), vocal easer. It also comes with some extra cool free effects with it. This program has better value for money and contains more effects which will make the video look more professional.

Vegas Movie studio 9 is a basic version of Platinum 10 although it contains less effects and less tracks to edit on it is still good for a beginner.

My opinion is to go the Platinum edition as it has more than one program and it is cheap for the price it is at. It is a program in which you will learn from and learn new skills and it is a good program that you will keep forever and not get bored with. Although it is $ 50 dollars more it is definately worth that $ 50 upgrade with 3 extra programs.
