Live 4/Live 5 Power are both pretty good. Though If you already own Live 4 Power I don't know if I'd pick up Live 5 Power. It is pretty much the same book with a handful of extra information about Live 5.

Out of curiosity I ordered the Ask Live 5 Tutorial DVD, though I am not certain how much I'll pick up from it.

This looks interesting. I like the idea of not having anything to load on your computer like the CSi tutorials do. Do you have experience with this particular video? Did you like it?

I bought the SWA video. Not gone through it all yet as I've been busy.

I thought for the price how could I go wrong and I've been happy with the way the content has been presented and the quality of the video sofar.

If you read the Live Manual most stuff is covered really well, but getting to see it happen make it all sink in better.

I'd rate the video as a Great buy for anyone new to Live and good buy for any who have been using Live but want to get a bit more from it. Not much use for Power Users, but then if you're a Power User why would you need tutorals??
