Cheapest way to get Vegas 5.0?

Hi all,

Does anybody know the cheapest way to get a legal copy of Vegas 5.0?

I am not a student and not eligible for academic prices.

So far the cheapest seems to be $499.00 USD.

Thanks... ;D

You could get it used. You could take a college class, and then be eligable, but that would probably cost more. Do you have kids? they would qualify if they are in school. You could see if you could find a used cheap copy of Vegas 4 and pay the upgrade to 5. That's about all I can think of.

I've seen Vegas 4 on eBay for less than $160 US, if indeed the upgrade path is taken. (Not that I'm recommending the eBay route, only using it for a "used" price figure) BTW, is there a different version of Vegas for the PAL world?

Not that I am aware of. As far as I understand it, Vegas suports PAL almost as much as it supports NTSC.

While Vegas supports your 24p, I am not sure if it supports 25p. Which is what the PAL XL2's use.

I am sure someone will correct me, if they see fit.

Yes it supports PAL 50i and 25P. In fact it had 25P long before it every had any 24P 2:3 pulldown support.
