Don't be swayed by the hype PPro2 is vastly capable. As is the AVID
offering. You would be wasting money. IMHO.
Get After Effects.
I never saw any realy use in the music portion of the Soundtrack Pro tool.
Others have. But as a composer.. it was useless to me.
YOU would be spending a great deal of money for hardware and software for
minimal benefit.
