Goto http://www.doom9.org/ and checkout the quicklinks for "Spruce DVDMaestro" and "Scenarist NT." I don't think easy will apply to DVD authoring especially if you're going to design your own menus. Of course Scenarist NT will cost you $39,000 unless you find a pirated copy. :rolleyes:
I've got Scenarist, and its not that good. It's too difficult to use and its quite old.
Its better to go for a more up-to-date and more user friendly authoring software. I use many.
One ones i prefer are Spruce up (which is discontinued i think, but highly recomend it) and dvd-lab pro.
Its better to use diferent authoring tools because some can have problems with a partcular file, but another could still use it.
Another i would recommend is neodvd plus. Although i don't use it that often.
For every day use i prefer dvd-lab pro

I write, direct, and film my own independent movies and this is what I use.
For editing : Cyberlink PowerDirector 3 [I've tried most all of the consumer level movie editing programs: adobe premier, videostudio, etc., etc. and this is the best one I have found. I like it over premier because it has a better gui, better navigation, and doesn't tend to freeze as much with D1 quality video]
For authoriting (creating menus and such) : Ulead Dvd Workshop 2 [ this is by far the best dvd authoritor I've found, and I've used a lot including adobe encore, dvdit, nero, tmpgenc (forgot how to spell it).
Both these programs are on irc and suprnova. I reccomend you get it!
Oh yeah, the computer I use to edit/author dvd's is
XP 2800+
Dedicated 120 GB Western Digital HD 8 Mb Cache
768 MB DDR 333 Ram
Nec 2500a Dvd+-RW ( i was thinking about applying the double layer firmware hack once the media is more widly avialable)
Windows XP Pro Sp1
