1TB less than $100, that's less than £60 in the UK 0_0 That's cheap.

I don't get how you plan your AMV. That means you have to watch the anime all over again just to find one specific scene which is suitable? That's long. I just pick randomly from video, and if it fits, it fits, if not, pick again. Prolly why my AMV is rubbish :P

Well, I'm now starting off (started doing video editing less than 3 weeks ago), but that's what I've been doing, it helps if you've seen the anime once (or 100 times) before, just go through the anime one more time and take notes on a specific scene, as to what general part of the song I want it done to, like for a specific line in the song etc.

I'm doing that specific method for my next AMV, watched though the series in one sitting one night, watched through random episodes over the course of a week, and then started watching each episode, noting possible scenes to work with a specific part of the song. It's time-consuming, but I hope it would mean that I've picked the best scenes possible to use for editing, before actually starting the editing itself. It could save you a lot of trouble in the long run.

Of course, everyone has their own method, but that's what I've basically picked up as my method.
