I want to record some videos of me playing along with backing tracks, but I want to be able to do audio editing after I finish the recording and have my steel on a seperate track than the backing track. What would be the user friendliest way t odo this. Are there any reasonably priced programs for this?

If you use a webcam and then use an input mic for the sound you can use most any DAW to edit the sound and Quicktime will use the input sound on the video rather than the camera mic. Garage band would work if you have a Mac

Although I never tried it, and I should...Pro Tools and I think most of the other DAWS can import a Quick Time video as well as it's contained audio file . The Audio content is on a separate track..so edit away !

Put your backing track in the DAW and make sure you can hear it while you are recording the steel on a new separate track in the DAW.
The steel should go direct into the DAW, or if you are miking your amp, the mike should go into the DAW.
While you are recording, record with the video camera at the same time.
In the end you will not be using the audio off the camera, but the mixed and enhanced audio from the DAW.

So you need a DAW to record high quality audio and a Video editing program to replace the camera audio with the DAW audio.
I don't know if you are using Windows, Linux or OSX, so I can't recommend any (free) programs.
Google would be your friend here.

Use a video camera. You don't need a pro expensive one. The camera will have an input audio plug, either stereo or left and right. If it's a stereo audio jack, and most home cameras' are, buy a radio shack splitter and go one side to your backing tracks and the other side to a mic or however your getting the sound from your guitar. Voila, video with stereo audio, one side backing tracks and the other your instrument. Or use your computer camera with the audio and video used the same way. You only need a splitter and maybe a cable or two. The two tracks of audio will now be in sync. Edit away.
