Summary: More than a trash..a hazardous to your PC
Review: This software seems to mess up the disk partition assigning whole different drive letters at random after the installation. You can't even uninstall completely because it puts permanenet damage to your windows registry and creates orphant dlls, etc. I cannot believe anyone selling this kind of horrible software. This software will cause a lot of damamge than a good. Now, my disk imaging software (Acronis True Image 7) and other *.dll dependent programs no longer work. Roxio should recall this junk immediately.

Summary: Does the word EASY mean something?
Review: I don't know why or how anyone could rate this software less than a 4 star. If you can click a button than you can use this software. It just doesn't get any better. The picture CD's with music background while playing is something I really use for the extended family.....

Summary: Shameful
Review: I own version 5 Platinum and have not had any problems. I read many reviews on the Vers. 6 Basic and Platinum and was not willing to take a chance on purchasing. I purchased a DVD burner which included the Basic Version EZ CD & DVD Creator 6. I installed the thing and it could not see my drives; not even the drive it came with. I turned off Drag and Drop and still nothing. I went to Roxio site and there was no real answer to resolve the problem. I tried reinstalling and nothing. I tried working with the registry and removing the filters they suggested I remove and still nothing. After approx. 3 to 4 hours of this I decided to uninstall and reinstall Version 5 Platinum. Everything works fine. It is truly a shame that a company with such a good reputation has allowed this software on the shelves for sale. The consumer needs protection from companies that sell faulty software to unsuspecting consumers. Shame on you Roxio.

Summary: CALL IT THE PLUTONIUM EDITION - IT POISONS YOUR SYSTEM
Review: Why, oh why didn't I read these reviews before throwing my money away on this system destroyer? It's like HIV. It screws up your system and you can't get rid of it. I wish we had the option of awarding zero stars! I had the previous edition of Easy CD Creator which worked with Windows 98. When I upgraded to Windows XP, I tried to re-install Easy CD and not only did it NOT install, telling me that I had to upgrade, it did something to my operating system so that even the built in Windows XP CD burning software no longer worked. I've since gone through every fix I can find, including one from the Microsoft website (which is also found on the Roxio website) which involves making changes and deletions on your registry. At least it quit giving me the error messages about having to disable loaded drivers because they will make your system unstable. But it still would not burn or format CD's, even though the drive still works ok to read disks or load programs. Finally, in desperation, I bought the new Easy CD & DVD Creator 6, hoping that their new version would install itself properly and would allow me to burn CD's. I figured that they were aware of this problem and would have built in corrections to the new version. In other words, "They broke it, maybe their new version would fix it!" No such luck. A bunch of bucks later, and I still can't burn CD's. I spent 45 minutes downloading all of the upgrades to this program from Roxio, but when I reboot to finalize the installation, Windows refuses to load,and I have to allow it to revert to the last known good configuration. I'm trying to install a different brand of CD software, but it doesn't work either, probably thanks to the "Roxio infection". It looks like I may end up having to re-install XP, and go through all of the upgrades again. The only good news is that I found my receipt, and the store where I purchased it gave me a full refund.

Summary: PLEASE SHOOT ME IF I EVER LOOK AT ROXIO AGAIN
Review: I swore off Roxio in version 4.0. Then I forgot why and forked out the bucks for Easy CD Creator 6.
I installed v 6.0 yesterday and now I remember why: It's like making a deal with the devil.
The program un-hid two hidden Dell partitions; it would not recognize my Sony DVD RW drive (510A); my Dell 4550 now crashes every few hours, even after I uninstalled Roxio and threw the thing away (surely my computer can sense that I threw it away!). The program obviously planted something in my registry or my Windows folder that can't be removed on un-install. Now I'll probably have to re-format my C: drive and re-install everything. So there's a day of my life sucked up because I fell for the Roxio juggernaut.
Why, oh why do we keep falling for this idiocy?

Summary: BLOATED and complicated
Review: VERY disappointed. Requires almost 1GB of disk space, then it promptly downloads a half dozen large update files. I'm sure there is lots of power hidden there, under comlicated interface screens. Worse than Microsoft!!! Buy mine; I'll go back to v5 and the simple life.

Summary: Destroys your CD/DVD drive configuration
Review: This is the first time I have ever written a review. If you have roxio version 5, stick with it, the patches from the site works fine. Don't ever buy Roxio 6. I don't even have to work for Roxio company to give it good ratings. Roxio needs to fix their bugs before making their real profits. Roxio version 6 crashed all my CD DVD drives leaving just my hard drive to work on. What a pain to re-install OS and everything that you need to get you going on your computer.

Summary: Worst program ever.
Review: I received the free version of Easy CD & DVD creator that came with my PC and it caused nothing but problems. After installing it and testing out the features I used the add remove programs to remove everything except the basic burning software. After rebooting I got an INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE error. A google search using the error code showed that other users had the same problem with older versions of this software I am using version 6.1.1.7. Using the repair console and the online documentation I was able to fix the problem and get back into my system. Now when I reboot I get a DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE BSOD and the system runs check disk next time it boots. Again Roxio easy CD creator caused the problem. They have a patch for this but they seem to be keeping it a secret. (http://softwareupdates.roxio.com/gm/support/tools/PowerStateFail.exe). My biggest complaint is that none of this information is on their tech support web site. I found it using google. Maybe they should have a www.easycdcreatorsucks.com to let everyone know how bad this software is. They have one for Compaq (www.compaqsucks.com).

Summary: Oh my gosh... Total computer crash..
Review: Well, I have never written a negative review before (frankly I don't write reviews very often.) Without being too malicious or extraneous let me just point out the facts. I installed this program. Installation was kind of sluggish and rebooted when completed. That was the last time I saw Windows. Numerous error messages all from system 32. I tried everything I could think of - safe mode negative, Roxio Go Back negative (stated no safe restore points found) system restore negative (couldn't get into windows to use.) Computer tech support was not helpful- they wanted to reformat the HD stating I tried everything already and the situation was hopeless and I should start over. Problem..... 2 years of baby pics only partially backed up. I admit that that is my fault completely. Anyway, new second hard drive installed, expensive data extraction software program installed, and about 15 man hours later I was able to get my baby pics stored to DVD and recovered most of the other data. This rescue plan was developed by a couple of folks on my computer brands forums. Although expensive, I needed those pictures back! Currently I am still working on it. It is like a person with amnesia who's mind returns but not quite 100%. Anyway, I agree with the previous person- this program acted like a virus for me. Trying not to be too nasty about this. In fact I read somewhere where some folks had this same problem but I ignored it because I have a fairly new/powerful computer and this has never happened to me before. Well that is it. Thought you should know.

Summary: Best virus out there
Review: All the bad reviews are true!! I've been working with computers long enough to fix minor/major bugs. But this software qualifies as a VIRUS! Changes drive letters. Destroys OS. Bluescreen of death! You will have to reinstall your OS and lose all your data on your hard drive. So, unless you're a Republican, don't install this "virusware".
