What is the difference between Music Maker 2013, Music Maker 2013 Premium, and Samplitude Music Studio 2013?

I got an email with an offer for Samplitude for only $49 while Music Maker is $10 more and Music Maker Premium is $99. Samplitude is regularly $224.99 (according to the site) so I would think it has the most features. 

What I'm really looking for is something with a lot of loops and is easy to use. I know Premium has 6000 and non-premium has half that, but I can't find if Samplitude has any loops. I am a noob at music creation and I just need to easily make some intro and outro stuff for my YouTube and a podcast I'm putting together in a house/dubstep style. 

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, in Basic version such as Music Maker you have referred is limited in features and sound library while the Premium version got more features with more sound library. However Samplitude products are treated for Professional users therefore they are a bit difficult than Music Maker/Music Maker Premium version.

Regarding you can't find  if Samplitude has any loops, off course it has, better check the link below for details

In past I have used Magix Music Maker Basic or standard version but later I bought Premium version and I am satisfied with that. Music Maker or Premium is easy to use than Samplitude in my opinion. You should do your home work if you like.

Me too make background music for youtube video using Magix Music Maker 16 Premium because from version 17 we have to buy separate license for commercial usage.

I still can't find where it says how many loops Samplitude has (even from that link). The word "loop" isn't in that PDF so do they call it something else?

Further to your LOOPS, in Samplitude they call it Sound Library, please read below

Samplitude® Music Studio 2013
Independence Sampler Workstation with a 12 GB content library or
12 GB Independence Sound Library

MAGIX Music Maker 2014
More than 3000 Sounds & Loops
MAGIX Music Maker 2014 Premium
More than 6000 Sounds & Loops

These are the terms you should know, Soundpool, Sounds & Loops, Content Lirbary, Independence Sound Library. Before you buy it is better to confirm what you will get or download trial version, if you got question ask the support when you are satisfied you could place order.

Please understand when you see 3000 or 6000 sound and loops it does not mean you will get such sounds or loops that is a total number of sound plus loops included in the software.

I see. Well I already have the trial for Premium. I guess I will download the Samplitude trial. 

Thanks for the advice!
