Roxio Vs Moviemaker

[swimmersteve]

Can someone kindly tell me why Roxio is better at editing movies shot with a camcorder than Moviemaker? I have Roxio but Moviemaker is free and for one thing you can easily extract a song from I tunes and put it on there but not Roxio. Just wondering if I should edit in Moviemaker or Roxio. Thank-you

Why a bought program is better than a free one? Basically you get what you pay for (and usually free apps are worth exactly what you did pay for them)

 

iTunes is a different thing - because they are proprietary Apple format (and due to copyright restrictions) you can't 'convert' them. The workround is to use the iTune app to make a CD (which you than CAN copy)

Thanks for the answer. Can you tell me what you can do with Roxio that you can't do with Moviemaker? I'll admit I'm not the smartest person out there but I'll spend hours trying to figure out Roxio and my 11 year old daughter whips up a very similar edited Moviemaker video that takes her 2 min to create.
