However, I don't know that the Windows world of video editing is so much better...
At the moment my (work-related) video editing / DVD mastering is done in the Windows world... and I've worked out that I actually use _4_ different applications to make the average DVD. - Adobe Audition for the audio tracks - Adobe Premier for the Video editing itself - MS Paint (kid you not) for rendering simply JPGs for use as titles :-) - Adobe Encore for generating DVD menu structures - Oh, and theoretically I use Adobe Media encoder to do the rendering, but it's so well integrated with Premier these days I don't think of it as a "separate application" as such, just a popup options box within Premier. At the moment, I see good free / OSS alternatives to Audition and MS Paint... but stick with what's there because I know them well, can drive them very, very, quickly, and there's still one area (fourier noise reduction) where the proprietary software has an edge technically.
