Don't worry. Sony's not stupid. There is an upgrade path.
From http://tinyurl.com/3wd64
Upgrade Vegas Movie Studio+DVD to Vegas 5 – $399.95
Upgrade any version of Vegas Movie Studio+DVD, Screenblast Movie
Studio, or
VideoFactory software to Vegas software.

Actually, I was meaning upgrading the projects themselves to the full
version of the software, but this is good to know, too. I'm currently
debating between Sony Vegas Movie Studio and Adobe Premiere Elements.
From what I'm hearing, with Adobe the projects are _not_ upgradable.
That's a bit of a downside but, realistically, I'm probably never
going to be able to go to the pro version anyway, so I guess it's not
a terribly big deal.

If by "upgrading the projects themselves to the full version of the
software" you mean importing a Screenblast Movie Studio or VideoFactory
project into Vegas, I'm not certain. I'd ask this question on the Sony
Vegas forum as I know there are several users who have made the upgrade that
you're considering and would be capab;le of answering this question.
As far as Movie Studio vs Premiere Elements, I'm biased so I'd d say go with
Movie Studio :-)
Download the trial versions and play with them though before you make a
decision.
What I do find interesting is that the "Comparison Chart" at
http://www.adobe.com/products/premiereel/pdfs/premel_compchart.pdf only
compares Elements against Pinnacle Studio Plus 9 and Ulead VideoStudio 8.
Is Adobe afraid of Sony's product?
