Reason 4 or Cubase 5

I'm thinking of getting one of these programs but I don't know which one + they cost a lot of money so I don't know if is worth it.

Thanks
 
what is your previous experience in music production?
what type of music are you using it for
do you need a recording capability for vocals etc.?
 
I have very little experience, used an open source program called LMMS, tried out the demo for reason 4 and I thought it was really good.

I don't need vocals.
 
i'd go for reason 4 then to start with. you can expand reason with refills to increase the types of sounds.
as you get better/require a more feature filled product i'd progress towards cubase.

also have a play around with fruityloops before making up your mind. some people may prefer it over reason in terms of the user interface.
 
If you have little or no experience, go for Reason. Its a doddle to pick up and very expandable. Only downside is it doesn't process audio natively, but you can use Rewire to use other audio apps. This could be important if you are going to be recording vocals/live instruments.

Logic is a much bigger learning curve but is much more powerful.

Reason 4 is my tool of choice.
