Like many other technologies, the cost of video editing has declined by an order of magnitude or more. The 2" Quadraplex system cost so much that many television production facilities could only afford a single unit and editing was a highly involved process requiring special training. In contrast, nearly any home computer sold since the year 2000 has the speed and storage capacity to digitize and edit standard definition video. The two major retail operating systems include basic video editing software - Apple's iMovie and Microsoft's Windows Movie Maker.
There are also more advanced commercial products such as AVS Video Editor, CyberLink Power Director, Adobe Premiere Elements, AVID Express DV, CyberLink PowerDirector, Final Cut Express, Sony Vegas, Pinnacle Studio, Ulead VideoStudio, Roxio Easy Media Creator, and muvee autoProducer.
Additionally, there are free opensource video-editing programs. These include Kdenlive, PiTiVi, Kino, Openshot and Cinelerra.
