How to import MTS to iMovie for editings

You may say iMovie is a great tool to edit clips from camcorders and videos on your Mac (Lion included) and it can also stabilize shaky clips from your camcorder. Yeah, you are absolutely an experienced iMovie user. But you may also have noticed that iMovie is not as easily accessible as it claimed while importing MTS to iMovie. iMovie ought to accept most of the popular HD cams, like Canon VIXIA HF200, Panasonic HDC-HS30 which record videos in MTS/M2TS format, but actually you may get errors from iMovie sometimes when importing MTS/M2TS to iMovie.

Many Mac users also have difficulty in importing their MTS/M2TS files to iMovie, especially raw MTS files even though they follow the iMovie instructions step by step - iMovie just can't recognized their camcorders at all. If so, you can convert MTS to iMovie with a professional MTS iMovie tool: MTS Converter for Mac, which will accomplish the conversion easily, with ultra fast speed and loss-less video quality. Just follow the below 3 easy steps to fix your MTS/M2TS iMovie problem:

Step 1 : Add MTS files- Click "Load File" icon to import one or more MTS footages from HD camcorders or local HDD into the program. Batch conversion will save you a lot of time.

MTS to iMovie software can be used as a basic MTS Player for Mac, users can freely play and preview the MTS/M2TS files.

"Merge into one file" option has the ability of combining the checked MTS files together so that you can get a continuous output file easily.

Step 2: Configure Output Settings:
Under "Format" dropdown list, Click "iMovie and Final Cut Express" >> H.264 AC3 Video (*.mov) or Apple InterMediate Code(AIC) (*.mov) as output format.

Because the MTS to iMove Converter has presets for the output profiles, so generally speaking, you have no need to reset the video/audio parameter like codec, resolution, bit rate, frame rate, audio channel and more under the windows.

If you wanna import MTS to FCP or FCE, just specify the corresponding output format.

Step 3: Convert MTS to iMovie AIC MOV on Mac Lion immediately by click “Convert” button. With the acceleration technology applied, you will find the MTS to iMovie conversion much faster than counterparts.

Apple Doesn't Need a Cheaper iPhone

You can't deny the smashing success Apple has had with the iconic iPhone. Since it was launched in 2007, more than 100 million iPhones have been sold and the revolutionary device now accounts for about 40% of Apple's sales. But Google (Nasdaq: GOOG ) has caught and passed Apple in the number of cell phones running its operating system and is adding 500,000 devices per day to its ranks. That has some Apple watchers calling for a cheaper iPhone to compete with free (with a contract) Android phones. Should Apple listen?

Above the fray
Apple's history of sticking with the premium product is mixed. In the 1980s, adhering to a closed system and high margins let Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT IBM, NYSE: IBM get the upper hand in the PC race. But recently, the premium product is what has differentiated Mac in the PC market and has led to its success. Likewise, when netbooks were all the rage, Apple stayed away from the price-sensitive products and instead worked on the iPad, which revolutionized the industry.

With the iPod, Apple expanded a successful product into the Shuffle, Mini, Nano, and Touch varieties that cover any price range consumers may need. That's the model Apple would probably follow if it wanted to reach beyond its current base.

But the answer of what to do with the iPhone depends on how Apple could make the product less expensive without ruining the experience. You can’t just shrink an iPhone, reduce the size of the screen, and have a hit the way Apple did with the iPod Mini. The iPhone is all about a superior experience, and any "dumbing down" may bring in more buyers, but they may not be happy with their experience.

Of course, Apple already sells the iPhone 3G for $49 with a contract through AT&T. Verizon doesn't have that option because the 3GS doesn't work on its network, although newer models could be made available at reduced costs.

But remember that one of the reasons the iPod model worked was that Apple essentially replaced the iPod with the iPhone, so it never became a commodity business based primarily on price. Apple gets on a slippery slope if it starts trying to make every consumer price point happy with iPhones.

Increasing sales volume has never been the only goal of Steve Jobs or Apple; instead, they've had success sticking with "delighting their customers." Unless Apple has some magic trick up its sleeve (and it might), I hope it doesn't stoop to making a dumbed-down iPhone
