Quicktime
When and if you decide to run 10.9… Compressor 4.1 adds some faster encoding via hardware acceleration in a couple of settings, supports some additional HD and UHD formats, improved H.264 MP4 CABAC, and a few other things. The Motion 5 keyer is a big improvement; it offers rigging, and again, support for more formats, I think that's about it.
