iLife '09: Real-world test

Is it worth the upgrade?
If you want new and intuitive ways to organise photos, take advantage of photo geotagging, an even better video-editing experience than you had with iMovie '08, and if you want to start learning to play the piano and guitar, iLife '09 is well worth the upgrade.

It's a superb suite of software with some impressive features, all of which organise your personal photos, videos and music in ways no other product on the PC can come close to matching, in terms of simplicity, function or professionalism.

But if you're an advanced photo manipulator, or are happy simply browsing photos by a folder name, if you don't want to learn to play piano, and find iMovie '08 perfect for your needs, there's no reason to spend your cash, and every reason to see what Apple introduces next year.
