VIdeo Editing Software Question

Do any of you guys/gals do amatuer vid editing or make you own DVDs either from home movies or training sessions?

If so waht editing sftware do you use?

I have read a lot of info, but it seems to get more confusing the more I read.

I’m a complete newb when it comes to this, but don’t mind a steep learnig curve it will produce a professional looking product.

I’m on the fence between Adobe’s Premiere Elements, Uleads Video Studio and Sony’s Vegas + DVD.

All the reviews I have read people either love them or hate them. Being a newb am I going to see a difeerence since it’s the only program I’ll know. Like I said though, I want a good looking product. Semi-Pro looking if possible.

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
