IMHO, Motion is just a plug-in for After Effects 7 Pro. I use Motion to render elements that I use in AE composites. Photoshop & After Effects is necessary for a complete FX kit. Here's something you can't do in Motion:

Uh...no, mark...a beige screen is NOT the effect I was going for 
That is a Full Screen Sorenson movie...can't explain why it won't just PLAY. Click the URL & wait for it to download (it's only 1.8 MB) and click the URL again...it plays fine.

"I think it depends on yr background. If you're from an FX and graphics world, then AE7 makes good sense. I came from an Editing background where I only used AE occasionally. But the amazing thing for me was that I could so much of what I used to do in AE, right there in FCP!!! My AE is 'sitting on the shelf', I just don't need it that often. Obviously there are really cool 3D things you can create in AE7, that FCP can't do.. there's no contest there..."
Hear hear. Although I actually envy those who really take to AE and the like. I certainly don't. I'm more into story and structure. But for those who do rock AE, and do it well, there's a world of jobs out there awaiting.

JB,
Thanx for the mullet site...hey, it was the 80's, dude
Until recently with 6.5 & 7, IMHO, AE had the worst UI design of all products in it's class...period. Also early on, you couldn't even render a RAM prevew...you had to render a small version of the movie and open it in QT to preview it.
