It's got a ton of great plugs, is pretty easy to get running and figured out, but has a long line of features and 'ease-of-use' items.
It's very low on the CPU, and very stable.
40$ gets the non-commercial version, though you don't have to pay to use it fully. It's uncrippled shareware.
The engine is 64bit, as is all of the included plugs, so there's no dithering being done between plugs (unless you use other ones that are 32bit)
2.5m download.
Before Reaper, I used N-track with pretty good success. I held out from upgrading to their ver 4, which was buggy. I switched to Reaper when ver 5 wasn't much better than ver 4.

Everyone has their favorites that they support. We all know dbs favorite shout out, and not to drag Noize in on the convo (oh well, i'ma do it anyway), but he's constantly showing love to Cakewalk products. It's good to have a variety of things to look at rather than everyone echoing the same thing.

Yep, Cakewalk has everything from the very entry level and easy on the pocket book up to the flagship Sonar 6 PE, which dB, myself and several others here use.
But indeed, it is good to look into many different things.
You kind of have to look at the amount of bells and whistles you want. And if you think you may want to start small and eventually work on up, then Cakewalk has you covered as they have one of the best upgrade set ups around.
