about the lack of competition in Mac-based media software, it can't
be denied that Apple's offerings are quite exciting. From very shaky
beginnings, iMovie has evolved into a very capable video editor, and
iDVD is probably the best DVD authoring tool at its market level. Last
year, Apple launched iLife. On the surface, iLife appeared to be a simple
bundle of Apple's basic media tools - iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto and iTunes
- but what really made it shine was the way in which each program inter-related,
allowing iTunes or iPhoto collections to be accessed directly from within
iMovie and iDVD. This was the first time we'd seen multimedia cross-referencing
implemented this comprehensively, and there's still nothing to compare
with it on the Windows platform. Peter Wells Read the full review in June 2004's Computer Video magazine. |
