RANT ALERT, RANT ALERT!

I am in a serious mood at the moment I want to simply add text to the top right of the video with "RWTS TV" written there and do you think i am able to do this with ease... OH NO!

Firstly the gratest video tool we had was Windows Movie maker (XP / Vista Versions) Now Windows 7 comes along (and the operating system is fantastic)but no longer comes bundled with movie maker.

Since Microsoft invented thier "Live" services they incorperated movies maker into that and really dumbed it down for use from the clueless amatures.

Ok fair enough but all the tools we had are gone!

So i am resulting in playing with demo versions of pro software for video creation and even though the output from Windows live movie maker is in HD as soon as it hits Coral it degrades to that of a mobile phone video, Whats the deal???

if you know of easy to use software that will simply let me add what i want to the video AND maintain the Qaulity i'd be most gratefull!
