Melodyne can do far more than tune vocals. It can make harmony notes by copy and pasting notes then drag them to the location you want. For example highlight a phrase and copy them paste and then drag one set up a third, WaaLaa you have a harmony. It can change notes again by dragging them up or down in pitch, or left or right in time. It can lengthen a note or shorten a note so that timing and such is affected. Say you start a tiny bit late with one note, but fall back in tempo after that, with Melodyne you can slide that one note in the time line.

AS Mac said, you can take audio and export Midi with Melodyne conversion. Still as he warned it is not perfect, but another tool in the box.

Jim watch the 4 videos on this page. http://www.mustardseedrecording.com/?p=1322

They come from jpetit one of the guys around here and at the studio one forum. Now this is not in Cubase, but it gives you an idea of what Melodyne can do. I do not know if Cubase has ARA yet, but a lot of this can be done as a plug in in DAWs without ARA, but it is just a step easier in those that do, like Studio one, and Sonar.

On your last point, the tracks in BiaB are separate tracks, and can be dragged into the drag and drop folder, or BiaB can be put in plugin mode and then they can be moved. Here is a video from this site on drag and drop http://screencast.com/t/slGiSYAHkHJQ i hope all this helps
