If you look closely here, Apple – Final Cut Studio – Top Questions, you will see DVD Studio Pro in the future will only be available as part of the Final Cut Studio bundle according to the buzz I have been reading.

And you don’t think Steve Jobs isn’t trying to take over the digital world–iPod, iTunes, video iPod, Intel CPU’s, Shake (It use to have a Windows version), Final Cut Pro (it use to be KeyGrip at Macromedia and was also being developed on Windows NT), LiveType (it use to be India Titler Pro from Prismo Graphics), Pixar and now on the board of Disney.

Apple, soup to nuts from content creation, distribution and delivery.

Amazing,

Whoops! Forgot Autodesk Combustion is also on Mac OS X and Windows and includes Z-depth.

To my knowledge your major choices for Z-depth compositing are:
Mac OS X
Apple Shake
Adobe After Effects Pro

Windows PC
Adobe After Effects Pro
eyeon Digital Fusion

Proprietary Highend Platforms
Quantel
Discreet Smoke, Flame, Flint

The following book might help you composite in FCP “Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Pro” by Kevin Monahan, has the following quote:
Chapter 10. Video Generators: How to get the most out of generators. They have much more firepower than meets the eye! Use them for geometric shapes, travel matte effects, creating graphic fill, or as standalone design elements. Tricking the render order pipeline and Z-depth matting is also covered to get even more mileage out of your stock generators.

FCP is not a compositing application, it is a non-linear editing application with layering capability.

In the interest of full disclosure iDive digital video software : digital video cataloging and logging software, analog to dv, video storage, ipod software got some good press at MacWorld.

I don’t know if it is industrial strength, but Wes Plate gave it a fairly good review posted at their web site.
