VideoReDo TVSuite with H.264 is a very useful and cheap video editing package, I don't know why people mess around with free software.:)

$96 is not what I'd call cheap!! Admittedly compared to something like Adobe Premiere it is but cheap it ain't.

As for the original topic; LastPass, XMarks, Notepad++, FileZilla, FastStone Image Viewer.... :)

You may not call it cheap, and are entitled to your opinion, but I am happy to agree to disagree with you.:disagree:
 
I don't call £56 cheap either, although I am willing to spend that much for a fit-and-forget solution. I don't think it qualifies in the context of this topic ("Free or cheap", not "cheap for what it does").

Indeed, we all are :) It's on my want list as there's various stuff I want to crop, though most of them rips of my Poirot/other TV Blu-Rays as they have the whole intro colour bars/beeps etc on them and I really don't want to have to reencode the whole thing.
 
I think we should blame the OP for not defining "cheap" :frantic:

Umph! Take your pick. I presume BH takes the second definition:

Yet another word we are forbidden to use in polite company?:disagree:

The Google suite is something I use daily: Chrome, Calendar, Keep, etc. And they all synchronize between all devices so easily: bookmarks, passwords, appointments, notes, etc.
 
Yes, I use Chrome and Calendar, though I use a 3rd party front end for the calendar on my Androids.
For notes I use Evernote (free), but for sync I pay for SugarSync which I don't think falls into the 'cheap' category any more.
