Sooo... the 8.0.1 iMovie 09 update is not even worth it?
I would disagree with this assertion. The iMovie update is absolutely worth it for a number of reasons, in addition to the ability to get decent 720p video from the built in export preset.
That you can possibly get even better results using other programs like Final Cut or third party tools is another matter. As it pertains to this iMovie update you can now, finally, get good looking 720p video without jumping through any additional hoops which is what most users in this space want. That simply wasn't possible before the update and it was a PITA.
Compare 720p exports from iMovie '09 before this update to ones after the update and the difference is dramatic. I think many users will be happy with the results of the new 720p export preset.
