OK product, shame about the support |
I don't suppose many people will be buying this product as there are four later versions. Just in case you are tempted by the cheap price, I offer some some words of warning.
Generally speaking I have had few problems with the software. Sure it has its bugs, but for my purposes it is generally quite adequate. I am fortunate that I didn't experience the grave problems that others describe here. The Disc Copier function, as its name suggests, allows you to burn entire discs without inserting gaps between tracks. This is essential for classical music where tracks are often cue points rather than separate entities. There is a facility called Audio Central you can use to make compilation albums, and this facility can also be used to transfer material from cassette or LP to CD. Despite the bugs I'd have given this product 4 or 5 stars were it not for Roxio's attitude to their customers.
Not long after I bought the product Windows issued XP Service Pack 2. Following installation of the latter, I found that certain modes of burning CDs with Creator 6 left me with a pile of coasters. I made umpteen requests for help and each time received generic, computer-generated answers which were of no help at all. You know the sort of thing - reinstall the product, turn off virus protection etc. I'm not Bill Gates but even I figured out the problem relatively quickly - XP SP2 uses a lot more resources, which led to a buffer underrun and copying being aborted.
Worse still is that Roxio no longer offer support for this product. I discovered this when all of a sudden using the auto-update facility generated a Windows error message. Now, there haven't been any updates for some time and I wasn't particularly expecting any, despite there being several minor but annoying bugs. I contacted support to confirm my suspicions that the internet location the updater links to has moved or closed. A simple question, surely. The reply was another generic email, telling me that basically Roxio are no longer prepared to discuss older products, and that if I want support I'll have to shell out for another version.
I took the matter up on the Roxio forum and with in minutes received sarcastic replies from the forum's resident "digital gurus" (employees of Roxio, presumably). Despite explaining that all I wanted was a simple answer to a simple question, I was berated for daring to hang on to a four-year-old product, rather than spending more and more money buying new products in the hope that this time the bugs have gone.
Bottom line: if you just want to copy CDs for car use this product isn't too bad. Beware though, there are quite a few bugs and you won't get any help if you ask about them. |

Easy CD & DVD Creator Platinum |
I have found this item to be more than I expected. It has features that I hadn't expected to be part of the program, but am happy they're there.
I would shop on Americancivilwar.com any time as I have always been satisfied with my purchases. |

Worst Software Ever |
|
This software completely sucks. On top of bad registration management, incomprehensible updating and pop ups to get more of your money for upgrades, etc. the software will completely hammer ITunes by altering your registry and make it impossible to burn cds from ITunes. Then you get the joy of reinstalling ITunes, and done hurridly, you've just lost all your playlists, album art, etc. Purchase this software if you want hours of head-banging frustration and annoyance. |

Avoid ALL roxio products |
|
We have had to suffer with roxio products that came with our computer. They cannot be removed either. Our desktop computer has an annoying glitch caused from trying to remove this horrible product from the hard drive. We even tried to download a program to remove it and nothing works. Customer service for this product is non-existent. The quality of roxio products is VERY poor and definitely not worth the high price you will pay. If you purchase roxio products you will regret it. |
