'''iMovie''' is a program for [[Macintosh]] that a few users use to make YouTube Poops. It's the Mac equivalent of [[WMM]] except with less crashes (in iMovie HD). 

iMovie was first introduced in 1999 by Apple Computer as the first consumer video editor for Macintosh computers, revolutionizing home video editing. During most of the 2000s, it was included as part of the iLife software suite (also including iPhoto, GarageBand and iDVD), and is also included with all new Macs made since 2001.

iMovie versions after iMovie HD 6 have a different problems (such as, if left open too long, the audio will go mute or skip while skimming though clips. At this point iMovie must be closed and re-opened). It lacks support for WMVs so you have to find a converter. iMovie '08 is generally considered one of the worst editing programs available, while its successors (iMovie '09, iMovie '11 and iMovie 10.0) are much more advanced and have more features then iMovie '08 and WMM (although it still doesn't support plug-ins).
