I know a bunch of people here use WMM2 and there have been a few questions about codecs and problems so when I saw this advertisement for Sony Movie Studio + DVD I thought I'd give anyone who lives in the US near a Comp USA the heads up as they say the final cost is $9.99 which is pretty unbelievable. (*the only catch is the mail in rebate adds up to around $60 so you'd have to shell out $69 USD and wait a few weeks for the rebate.) Here is the link to see for yourselves:

http://www.compusa.com/adproducts/product_info.asp?product_code=332998&pfp=ADPRODUCTS

Seems it is only good for purchases today and tomorrow 3/17 and 3/18.

I personally use the big brother program Sony Vegas 6 but this should be a big step up for those using WMM2.

(*I do not work for SONY and I do not work for CompUSA)

Holy guacamole! I kinda accepted long ago that I'd never even get CLOSE to anything like Vegas. And here this is, Baby Vegas for $10????

*faints*

I've actually looked at Baby V before and it seems like it's the basic Vegas editor minus the audio component. And probably a good deal of the bells and whistles that Big Bro has. But still...

$10??????????

Wow! Thanks so much for posting this, ML!

Glad to have helped you Ais! I was shocked to see this price too and hoped someone would take advantage of this deal. The lowest I've ever seen Movie Studio for is $49 at Best buy. Enjoy it and hope you snag one at this price!

Nobody said that Nate. Some people just don't have the bandwidth to download from bit-torrent. That's all. Consider yourself lucky that you could download it, it's a $600 program. But I wouldn't announce it so freely, you never know who's watching. Just be careful. I know someone who got busted for downloading Zoo Tycoon and was fined a whole lot of money for it.

Just be careful sweetie.

I did! Baby Vegas is on its way!

*much celebrating and rejoicing*

(Geez, guess I should work really hard at finishing that WMM guide before I toss WMM over, huh? )

Okay, actually I guess I should wait and see if it even works on my computer before I get all high-and-mighty about tossing WMM over...

And Nate, I don't consider you a bad person by any means. But in my neck of the woods, they are cracking down like mad on software and movies getting swapped through the torrents. I'm serious, people have been going to jail and getting hit with huge fines over it! Makes me kinda glad that my computer's too neurotic for torrents!

But hey, if they catch ya, Nate, I promise to bake you a cake with a file in it, okay?

I'm so happy for you! If you have any questions about it I know a vidder from the Farscape Fandom who wrote a tutorial on Movie Studio plus a bunch of us here use Vegas which shares a lot of the effects!

LOL...Nater, you're silly

I know Colin, seems kind of stupid, huh? I would not like to be the one to have that on my record! LOL.

"What are you in for?"

"I pirated Zoo Tycoon off the net."

LOL


WEEEEEEE! Aislynn's moving up!

If you happen to have a link to that tutorial, I'd love to read it! I'm kinda nervous about trying something new!

ETA: Never mind, I found the link from your site!
