As time goes on I`m sure they'll add more features, so it will become even better. And if you're worried about music rights... just go to http://www.sellaband.com/shop/artist/mandyleigh/ and download the free mp3's. I`m sure they don't have a problem in you using their music for your non-commercial video's. Actually, I don't even think the majors would care too much, as long as you aren't making money from the music. Looks good to me.
