I own both Vegas and the CS3 Production Suite. That said, I actually prefer Vegas as an NLE; it just feels like a smoother experience IMO, even if Premiere is usually considered the more 'professional' NLE. However, even though I like Vegas more than Premiere, I also find apps like Photoshop and Illustrator to be invaluable in a lot of projects. And once I learn After Effects (which I'm in the process of), I have a feeling it'll prove incredibly useful as well.
So, if all you're looking for is an NLE, I would say Vegas is the more user friendly of the two. Last I checked, it takes fewer system resources as well, so if you think your system may have a tendency to hang when editing complex video, you might consider Vegas.
(FYI, the reason I have both is because Vegas is on my PC and CS3 is on my Mac.)
On a side note, yes, I do not have any AMVs on the ORG. I haven't made any AMVs as of yet. But I have worked in video production for 3-4 years now, I've done some freelance and contract work, and I'm majoring in visual communications. So just because I don't have anything on this site doesn't mean I haven't edited video before. :P
... yea ...
