share your music in several ways.

You can send projects to other iLife applications, such as iTunes, iWeb, and iDVD, or
export them to disk. You can also burn a song to a CD.

There are several ways you can share video podcasts and other projects containing

in the movie on DVD.

Note: When you send a project to iDVD, no video compression is applied to the
project. In most cases, you’ll want to make these changes in iDVD.

view the video podcast, they can click a URL to have the associated webpage appear in
their web browser, and choose specific chapters to view. You send a video podcast to
iWeb in just the same way as an audio podcast.

You can also export a project containing a video as a QuickTime movie (.mov). When
you export a project as a movie, the exported movie includes both the video and the
soundtrack you created in GarageBand. The video’s audio is also included unless the
Video Sound track is muted when you export the movie.
