Remove your address unless you love span. There are programs out there that will find it and put you on everyone's mailing list.
What computer do you have? I think we got the message about wide screen !
EMC 8 can do all that you want with a caveat. Media Import which is used for capturing loses the 16:9 flag when capturing to MPEG 2. I believe the samething happens when using Plug N Burn. However, MPEG 2 isn't recommended as an editing format anyway.
If you capture to DV AVI, you shouldn't have any trouble at all keeping 16:9 throughout the Videowave project and a MyDVD project.
As for #4, that is subjective. Personally, I find Videowave and MyDVD the easiest two apps that I have used.
