Best answer:
Answer by Samuel Adams
Windows Movie Maker is the best free product, but I’ve listed other free video editing software below. If your willing to spend a little bit for a better product I recommend Ulead Video Studio or Adobe Premiere Elements. You can even download a free trial of either product to see if it will meet your needs.
