iMovie exports are way too big
I'm wondering why when I edit together 4 .mov clips that range between 9 MB and 73 MB that my edited movie exports as 2 GB???? This is infuriating. All I want to do is edit them together and, unless I want to drastically reduce the quality, the final result is enormous. Come on, Apple. You can do better than this. My research has basically recommended that I buy better editing software than to use Apple's terrible, amateur editing software. But the real kicker is that I've been using Apple's iMovie for years to edit videos and movies, and it's never been this aggravating. What the **** happened in the last year???
