Is Drupal right for me? Looking for some advice from experts

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read my question - another one in probably and endless query... will Drupal suit my needs?

Beyond just needing a good framework for a corporate site, I have a few specific needs. My company mainly focus is creating media content. Videos, Flash, etc... Our main website simply needs the function of looking nice, having our production information, and demos of our work.

Once we past that, we have a client area. This is where clients are grouped by company and they can participate in a production reporting system. I am hoping to mimic the basic functionality of BasecampHQ.com but with our own design. When a job moves from production to final release, then we want that project management page to turn into a project resource page - filled with downloads of the various file formats our clients requested.

Further, and this is where it gets much more complicated, I would like the system to offer a syndication service for our clients. The basic idea here is that our projects - video, flash, silverlight, etc... - can be placed in our client's websites or their partner websites by using a Javascript link. Basically, YouTube style. So when our job is done, they can just copy/paste the link to their website and they are up and going.

Which leads me into reporting - obviously we want to report our own access, but on the lines of the syndication we also want to tell our clients how often and from where the media has been accessed. This is especially handy in the case where they give the links to their business partners. I figure that I will just set up something server side that will relay the information into a Google Analytics account for the client and then work out some nice custom reports for them. But maybe there is some stuff in Drupal that would do better - or already well developed hooks to popular reporting/analysis services.

Oh yea, in the client area - they need to be able to upload assets for use in our productions. I figure this has got to be an easy aspect of any CMS. Ideally, it should have one of the new slick JAVA apps that let you drag and drop files from your desktop and they go right into a client library. Even better if I can access that library from my syndicated media. Like if my flash media knows to look into the public folder to provide documents when syndicated.

So there we go. Am I in the right place or should I just build this thing with other tools out there. So many choices, but I have a feeling that starting with a good CMS is the trick. I believe my needs will start breaking the other guy, Joomla, but I am just not sure.

I would love some feedback and even pointers to any off-the-shelf modules that would make these tasks significantly easier.

Thanks everyone.
Brian!
