I love how Apple just releases these things out of the blue. If it was Microsoft they’d be crowing about it loudly on blogs for 6 months before then underdeliver a broken pile of crap.

I don't get this unnecessary flak against MS? Like what's the point? Totally not relevant, they don't even have a similar product on the level of iMovie

Were you not burned by the many iterations of Windows Live Movie Maker? It was a 16-year product. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Movie_Maker

This has been on Windows since like Windows 8. Probably before that since I haven't been tracking it. But I remmember I used to make these types of movies with storyboards years ago.
