right, software is easy, vid makers like me and rutz (im pretty sure he does anyway) use Fraps to record and Sony Vegas pro 8.0 to edit (PM me if u need a link for a free download to them).
Music choice is all a matter of style - i prefer jazz *points to hexed and fisting* where as most people, including chez and mosier, prefer drum and bass. If you want to see what i mean by 'its a matter of style', just look at FNugget's vids: Twist and Shout and Unleash the Awesome/Attacked have very diverse music choices, yet are pulled off VERY well. FNugget also said he was going to make a vid using rap music in the near future just to prove it can be done. So basically, you just need to find a style that suits you and that you find easiest to edit and sync to. Just please make sure you avoid Pendulum simply because it's too predictable and cliché.
