Oooh...tricky question.
It depends what kind of music you are making and what kind of software you want.
Do you want an "all-in-one" package or everything seperate?
Right now, I'm using Abelton Live 4.0 and Native Instruments Absynth for pretty much everything, but that might not work for you.
My advice is to download a demo (if possible) and play around with it. Most are pretty functional.
Some of the more advanced ones don't have demos, so check your local music store or p2p network.
Here are some good links to check:

Also - keep in mind that some just make music and don't actually record.
That's a whole other discussion but you can try:
Pro Tools
Deck
Audacity
Amadeus
Cool Edit Pro
Sound Forge, etc..., etc...

It's funny how the first thing people say is a soft synth. A synth is a just a tool. What are you talking, recording actual played music or synthetic stuff? Logic is a sequencer, Reason has sequencing capability but is a soft synth. You can line in instruments to your Mac and then record with a sequencer such as Logic, Pro Tools, etc, etc.

Learn the piano or electric piano, buy a MIDI keyboard and line it in to a sequencer. Learn the guitar and plug it into your Mac and record it with your sequencer or audio editor.
