| On the Mac side I've always had good luck with Digital Performer. It actually comes with a pretty cool looper too, so it's not that OT. (POLAR) I think I got it because I was tired of having issues with hardware and software not playing well together and the only options were MOTU or Digidesign. MOTU was cheaper so there you have it.
and of course, Live, but I never use it as that.

I think most of the higher end recording apps will save OMF files which PT should import without (much) problem. That's the theory, anyway.
I use Sonar. I just liked it. It seemed intuitive to me. I hear a lot of good feedback about Vegas. However, Vegas has no MIDI sequencing, so if you need that, you're out of luck.

I recorded my first CD using Vegas...and quite like it. Found it very easy and intuitive.
I have since moved on to using Nuendo which is by Steinberg. VERY extensive program. I have Cubabse but don't use it. Nuendo is quite deep, but very intuitive and not at all a Labyrinth of details like many "deep" recording programs.
Nuendo is also pretty expensive....
I am contemplating making a move to a Mac/ProTools system if only since PT has become a "standard" in studios. I recently did some soundtrack work which I recorded with Nuendo. There was some mild bitching from the studio (CBS) engineers about having to convert files over to PT. I figure with more of this type of work coming my way I should try to be most compensating (it's a pretyy cut-throat gig, and the easier I make it on "them", the more work I may find...)
