• Plus version supports formats ranging from HD to cell phone and 'Net video
• Editing support for Sony AVCHD format
• Rapid creation of basic discs and more detailed editing possible

• Standard version seems redundant compared to easily-affordable Plus

Skip basic version of VideoStudio; head straight to VideoStudio Plus. Basic and power users will each find much to benefit from there.
