really good, easy, simple, and fast are all subjective.
Good is only good to those who think it is. IMO Adobe Premiere Pro isn't "good". 6.5 on the other hand, is.
Easy is only easy to those who think it is. For me, its easy to learn and use a bunch of "complex" programs. Thats how i am. Premiere and After Effects are easy for me but hard for others. Thats something you need to figure out on your own.
Simple is pretty much the same as the above. Something simple to me might be too complex to someone else.
Fast is also very subjective. This all depends on the software itself and your source. Adobe Premiere 6.5 is fast but only if the source i'm using is in a format/codec that is editable. For instance, using Huffyuv is a LOT faster then using divx/xvid or mpeg2. On the other hand, for me, using Adobe Premiere Pro or even WMM, it's slow no matter what format/codec i'm using.
So... what am i trying to say here? Figure it out for yourself. Go download some trials/demos and see if they are what you want... then buy it and use it.
