I did use Vegas Movie Studio for a few YTPs in the past before I got a Mac (back when Sony owned it), but I will admit this is kind of a big blow to the consumer video market. So among Vegas Movie Studio's discontinuation, on the North American market Magix rebranded their Movie Edit Pro as Movie Studio 18 (as the last Vegas Movie Studio version was 17).

Magix has already had their own Movie Edit Pro line of consumer/hobbyist video-editing software designed in Germany, and I assumed it didn't make sense for Magix to offer two very similar but still different applications. This most likely came to be due to how Magix bought the Vegas software from Sony in 2016. Last week, Magix Software discontinued their Vegas Movie Studio line of video editing software, essentially a consumer/hobbyist-aimed version of their more famous Vegas Pro.
