Rating: Summary: Do NOT Buy This Product! Review: Roxio is known for having bugs, but this program is the world class bug infested software of all time. I don't even know where to start. But suffice to say that I allowed the program to be updated last night and now the thing can't even format a CD-RW. It won't even print labels, even ones created with earlier versions of this product, and the label maker was traditionally the only bug-free part of the suite. I have never seen a more blantant disregard for customer satisfaction. Uninstalling it was one of the highlights of my life.
Rating: Summary: stay away from #6 Review: I have been using version 4.02 and have had minimal problems. I bought a new drive and #6 was inside so I tried it. Didn't like it - went to put 4.0 back in and now it won't read the drives. says there are no correctly configured drives. When I turn #4 off the drives work fine. Roxio needs to be smarter than this. Do not buy Roxio junk. The support is sub-par and they leave you with self help skills. Which means - you figure it out we can't. thanks
Rating: Summary: Give it back to Adaptec Review: They didn't have a "0-star" option or I would have used it. I've been using CD creating software since 1997, mostly from Adaptec. With this package I've produced more "coasters" than I did back in those days of $800 CD-burners, $8 CD-Rs, 2x record, and no buffer. I picked up "Roxio's" Easy CD Creator 5 as part of a system software package in 2002 and the first thing I had to do was download a service pack for WinXP. This particular version (6) only works when it wants to. I'll give it this much, it wasn't hard to remove from my system. How can a company take a product, make it worse, and still continue to find buyers. That must be why I'm not in marketing or economics. I ordered Nero 6 Ultra instead. WinXP has a better burning package for free.
Rating: Summary: Great program: better than 5 hands down! Review: I've used roxio products ever since I started burning (went from 4 to 5 and now to 6) and I have to say Roxio had kept the main reasons why people keep using it in the first place. i run win XP sp1 w roxio 5, had nothing but issues. Nothing would work as it should and I had to put in six. Ever since, NOTHING has changed in my drive or system settings, EVER!!! This is an excellent program that gives little trouble. More complex than 5, but at least it works! I have a dvd +r/rw burner and it has never changed settings there. However, i won't buy 7: napster sucks!!!
Rating: Summary: This will mess your computer up! Avoid! Review: My mom purchased this software to go with her new DVD burner. I installed it on her computer and was unable to get it to work. Not only that, but the computer crashed frequently after the installation of this software. The software changes settings on your computer even when you check boxes requesting that it not do that. I've also tried to get the software working on my laptop (running Windows XP). I had the same result. This software is pure garbage. As a comp sci major, I am fairly computer literate. I don't think it should be this difficult to get a piece of software to work properly. I will never buy another Roxio product.
Rating: Summary: Simply a Lousy Product Review: How can you take what was a great product in CD Creator 5, and mess it up this bad???? Roxio did it. Unlike version 5, this product is complex, utilizes a poor interface and simply isn't very good. Too many features for most folks and it has a lot of quirks, like locking up and closing down all by itself. Forget this product and seek out a copy of Platinum 5.
Rating: Summary: Horrible!! Review: This is horrible. I got this program with my CDRW burner about a year ago. It worked fine for about 6 monthes, until it started wrecking my CD's. Everytime I tried to burn a CD, the program would exit. I tried everything. Finally, I got another program (Nero) and it worked great! I highly recommend Nero, and I DO NOT recommend Roxio. It's trash!!
Rating: Summary: roxio cd creator 6 Review: cd creator is great for creating your own mixes, as well as for some fairly sophisticated editing of WAV files. be forewarned, however, that this software can cause serious computer crashes. as you read users' reviews of various roxio cd creator versions you will notice lots of people complaining about profound, major system malfunctions which they have experienced (this reviewer included). so, be sure to establish a restore point prior to installing. i only use the audio component of this software and use it intensively. version 5 was somewhat intuitive. version 6 is a mess! after struggling with this software for a few weeks, i reinstalled version 5. that said, the software packs a lot of bang for the buck, but don't expect it to be easy by any stretch of the imagination.
Rating: Summary: This is TRASH!!! Review: I bought this solely based on the "Roxio" reputation. I installed it, the DVDs I burned didn't work (it crashed). I spent serveral hours downloading the "upgrades" from the Roxio site, then tried it again. The DVD crashed still!!! The store I bought this from (Best Buy)does not take open software returns (none!) So I stepped outside then threw this entire package into the trash. I gave this product one star only because Amazon doesn't have a lower rating.
