I tried to download PD 8 trial version. The download speed is dismal 25 kbps.
The download stopped as it was timed out

Large file + lots of users = slow download speed. Thats my guess. Q9300 2.5 GHz
4 GB Ram
Nvidia 9800 GT

Go and get the "Fee Download Manager", also know as FDM.

Close your browser, install FDM, then go click the trial download link.

I just checked it again and I can download at 10Mbits on demand, so the file is out there, you just need a better D/L manager.

Okay. Downloaded and installed PD8 trial. 1st Impression >> Not very impressive.
except for 9 pip and 3 audio & video enhancement option.

Reverse video
Much better previewer
Copy and paste between timelines
Youtube & Facebook upload limits fixed
Multi-monitor editing
Lighting enhance, stabilization, denoise, all integrated now.

I don't know Babdi, I think there are great improvements.

Mmmm - for USD50 (for upgrade) that isn't much improvement. I haven't put it through its paces yet but some core problems need to be fixed before I consider forking out more $ to Cyberlink.

On the web
The features you mentioned already exist with competition since ages.They should have been there in the 1st place when PD 7 was introduced.

I am still unable to switch a clip by drag and drop between main time line and PIP time line and vice versa.

As PJC said the much eagerly awaited AVCHD issues is not addressed.
They have compiled all the patches of PD7 added a few improvements and
brought it out as PD8.
