You don't miss scoring in GarageBand'08? From the article:

"Even GarageBand has lost the ability of Movie Scoring introduced in  
the ‘06 version. If we cannot do in iMovie’08 audio-dub with mixes,  
lower the sound on small parts of the movie to more clearly hear the  
voices, adjust the audio at the beginning and end of the songs and  
other stuff like this, we could use GarageBand but…
If GarageBand’08 had the Movie Scoring we could jump our project and  
do it there but even this Apple removed."
