This app is phenomenal. Prior to this version, if you wanted to capture audio from your Mac's built-in audio bus, you had to route it via analog cable from your headphone out back into your audio input. This was very silly.

With Snapz 2 that is no longer the case. Also, frame rates are higher, quality is great, the options are plenty, it's super easy to use, it's got a fun interface and classic Ambrosia fun-ness.

Although I haven't used any PC equivs, many people are saying this is the best motion screen cap tool in existence. I believe them.

The reason I started looking into motion screen caps tools was to overcome Flash's inability to export to QuickTime properly for complicated Flash files (with scripting, interactivity, certain nesting components, etc.). For the last year I had literally been pointing a video camera at my screen, recording that to tape and then capturing the tape into the computer, processing that and then showing it to the client. Why? So I could scrub the QT movie for review purposes, which is not doable in the Flash files we created.

Granted, if I had used my brain I would have caught on to Snapz before now, but at least it's all well that ends well. This app is the bomb if you need that type of thing.
