Ryanne and I started using iShowU a while back when snapzpro couldn't come out with a version that worked on Intel Macs (it does now). To our surprise we found iShowU to equal snapzpro in terms of features for for recording video (snapzpro also does stills) and far surpass it in usabliltiy, ie the amount of time it takes to save a file. With SnapzPro, when you "finish" recording, the app then encodes the video and audio and then saves a new copy to your hard drive which can take 3X or longer. I assume they do it this way so you get better performance when recording but I haven't seen a difference compared to iShowU which does the encoding on the fly and has the video ready for about 1 second after you stop recording. Also, a tip that helps with both iShowU and SnapzPro is to use the photojpeg codec for capturing. It great quality and low overhead on your cpu.
