"Apple's iLife is a great suite for managing and editing your movies, music, and photos with an affordable collection of software applications... if you have a Mac. If Apple ported it to Windows, I think they'd sell a million copies overnight because the apps are all incredibly easy to use. While software bundles like Roxio Easy Media Creator and Nero 7 Ultra Edition include everything plus the kitchen sink for media editing and management, they both fail to make the process as elegant as using Apple's iLife. Microsoft hasn't stepped up to the plate to offer all the features, although Windows Vista does include some of the features in the Premium and Ultimate flavors. Here's my list of apps to build your own iLife suite for Windows."Wow, that is a lot of different applications that are needed to help make up the role of a single app on the Mac. All you software developers out there... here is clear proof that there exists a space to delight end users. I find Jake's choices interesting in some cases, specifically picking Picasa ove any of its competitors. Plus, I would have though that one of Adobe's suites would make it to the list.
