I am 90% certain that masking is not available in movie studio - only in the full version of vegas.

Sony Creative Software - Vegas Pro 8 - Vegas Family Comparison
Yes you can upgrade.
Vegas Pro is about 8 times the cost of Movie Studio, but upgrading works out cheaper

Yes - I think it is the best 'value ' editor - along with the free xp one.
Personally speaking, I couldnt manage with 4 tracks for much i do.

It all depends on your priorities. If you've got no money but loads of time (eg students) then VMS will do much of what you need to do. If you're a pro the cost of VP is insignificant comapred to the opportunity cost of your time. If you're just a hobbyist with wife & kids demanding your time and no money you just have to bite the bullet, buy Pro and hope the missus doesn't see you credit card bill
