Summary: The worst of All
Review: I received Easy CD Creator 4 basic which has never worked. Friends advised me to buy Easy CD Creator 5 Platinum which has never worked either. Their tech-support is rude and incompetent that have never been able to install their own software.
Roxio is the worst breed of the worst. A friend of mine just got Easy CD Creator 6, which did not work too. Roxio's tech-support advised him to pay $35 if he wants his software fixed !!! Roxio makes buggy software and requires people to pay to try to fix it !!!! Roxio is really abusing of people.

Summary: No problems
Review: My new computer system came with the basic cd creator and I decided to upgrade to get all the extras. After reading all the horrible reviews I was very sceptical and sought advice from my computer 'gurus' who weren't much of any help but I still went ahead and bought it. I first backed up all my files & created a restore point etc and I must say that to date I have had no problems. I am burning, creating photo slide shows, playing music and still learning more each day. The tutorials are easy to follow and once you get the hang of it you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out the rest. NOTHING happened to my PC like what happend in other reviews. Thumbs Up. I will recommend to anyone. Oh, by the way I have a Dell Dimension 8200.

Summary: As every one said, this is a piece of JUNK
Review: This software was given to me as Christmas gift now I am trying to register it, but ... The TSID (Technical Support ID) is not valid and I can't update the software (because it's not registered). I checked roxio.com but all they answered me was no help for me! Let me give you an advice, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!

Summary: Screws up your Hard Drive
Review: I haven't used the program too much yet, but the one dvd backup I did make worked fine.

My major qualm with the program is that upon installation, it seems to have partitioned my hard drive without asking me and for no apparent reason. I now have a FAT partitioned f: drive containing some system files. I could tell the installation had problems from the start because it kept flashing the same message and rebooting my computer several times.

I have a 7 month old Dell machine running Windows XP.

Summary: Should be pulled off the shelves!!
Review: After reading the reviews, it is easy to see that I'm NOT the only one having all sorts of problems. Roxio "Easy" (LOL) CD/DVD Creator came bundled with my new TDK DVD burner. It has got to be the sorriest software I've ever attempted to install, with the exception of some freeware. It exposed hidden partitions, only partially installed, and I'm seeing the dreaded BSOD, telling me that there is a software or hardware conflict. Version 5 came with my computer, so I had to go back to using it. Also, ever since I TRIED to install version 6, ACDSee tries to act as Windows Explorer. I would advise any and everyone who is even thinking about purschasing this software NOT to. It's looking like I'm going to have to wipe my HD and start all over.

Summary: Do not waste your money
Review: I have used Roxio CD creator 5 for the past year and was very pleased with it. When my husband and I decided to reload our OS I figured we'd try the next step up. What a mistake! Version 6 takes forever to install, caused my pc to take forever to perform restarts, and won't even open. After uninstalling and reinstalling I still had the same problem. I plan on demanding my money back from Roxio and sticking to good old version 5. I definitely do not recommend this product. I only wish I had read the reviews here at Amazon and on Roxio's own website before wasting my time on this software.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: No problems here
Review: I don't understand all the negative reviews. I bought this because I got a DVD burner and the bundled software wouldn't recognize a DVR or CDR in the drive. I found out that it was an issue between the software and my OS (Win ME). I was looking for something that would allow me to actually burn DVDs on my DVD burner. I had an earlier version of Easy CD Creator and I was happy with it, so I was disappointed in the negative reviews of version 6. I looked into other software that was supposed to do the same thing and other brands also had a lot of negative reviews. I decided to take the chance on Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 (Platinum Edition). I received it and installed it right away. I had absolutely no trouble installing the software and so far it does exactly what I want it to do.

Summary: This is Junk!!!
Review: Received Easy CD&DVD Creator6 Platinum for Christmas because I had really liked version 4. Have not been able to get a complete install on it to date, and the parts that did install didn't function right. Went to Roxio's support site & found that many purchasers had same[and many other]problems. Some even had to restore their PC. Sent Emails to their tech support and received one answer so far. It took 11 DAYS for them to answer, and it was just a bunch of babble,nothing to do with the problem. I have uninstalled&deleted everything I can find related to it on my PC, and thrown the blasted thing away. I will NEVER buy another ROXIO product again.

Summary: Next time I'll believe the bad reviews
Review: I put in an order for this (I had version 5 on a prior PC) so that I'd have some decent DVD software on my new PC. I treated the negative reviews here with skepticism.

But they appear to be bang on target. So far, it has completely prevented XP from restarting (giving me a message that Windows can no longer figure out whether I have a valid license or not -- trust me, I do; and then on another reinstall hungup half-way through copying files. For something as basic as disk copying you shouldn't have to deal with the kind of problems that bleeding-edge games or other exotic software present. Even with the current rebate I'm out ... because I figured it couldn't be all bad. Forget it. I'll go back to the earlier version.

Summary: DVD Creator 6 installation disasters
Review: I'm both relieved and bummed to find so many others have experienced the same catastrophe I did in installing this product. It came bundled with a DVD burner from one of THE top names in the industry, and it shuffled my folders across my partitioned hard drive like a drunken poker player. Windows even lost all sight of a 60gig external hard drive -- it would dutifully "beep" in hardware recognition when I unplugged and replugged the drive into its firewire port, but the drive itself might as well have been in the Phantom Zone. Until Roxio makes clear -- In. No. Uncertain. Terms. -- that this issue has been fixed, I would not recommend the product to anyone but my boss at work.
