Not available in Canada, eh? Pity...

No matter how often I recommend VideoFactory, it's a really hard sell. Mainly because it's not available in any store in Canada. The only real option is the download option, which most people will just not do. They seem to want to hold a shiny new box to justify their expenditure, even if that box is just full of air ;) I can walk to the local drug store and pick up VideoWave, Premiere, or Studio DV. But no where can you find any Sonic Foundry product. Got something against us Canadians? Another Rant: "VideoFactory" is the name of a Lego set that I would buy for the kids, not a serious editing tool which it actually is. The name really should be representative of the product. The words "Video" or "Studio" has been beaten to death (VideoWave, VideoStudio, StudioDV, EditStudio, etc...) give it a break. Your programmers are top notch, but I would look for another marketing firm. May I suggest just "Vegas Pro" and "Vegas LE" respectively for "Vegas Video" and "VideoFactory"? Then maybe I won't be so lonely in this forum ;)
