Summary: Don't waste your time...
Review: ...with this. Upon install, RecordNow wants to uninstall every other cd burning package it can find, including XP's built-in CD Recording functionality.

Other programs (Nero, NTI, CloneCD, etc) provide the same functionality and aren't nearly as intrustive.

Really annoying...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better Than CD Creator
Review: East CD Creator would not work on my system. I uninstalled and reinstalled the blasted thing and it still would not make my CD burner burn. So I installed this product called RecordNow Max. It worked the first time. Now I'm burning my own CD's like a madman. Very good product.

Summary: Don't Buy it
Review: I had a ton of problems getting all the programs loaded with XP. I e-mailed and called Roxio 13 times. Their service and support ranks dead last.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: RecordNow ahead of the rest
Review: I initially came across a derivative of this software shipped with a new DVD writer from HP. Prior to that I had always used
Easy CD platinum as it better suited me for most of my options. I burn a great deal of photography and video to CD/DVD and had had problems using Nero to obtain compatible DVD and VCD file formats.

Record Now however is simple to use and has a good interface that handles most of your needs with one mouse click. I particularly like the ability to erase RW drives or format them there at the same time. On the left of the interface an icon clearly depicts which drive you are selecting or using at that time (I have both DVD and CDRW drives)

I tend to write at a slower speed that the max available for the drive and I have had very few failed disks. The software seems to be in harmony with the drive.

In the older versions i had problems with the drive locking up due to DLA (direct letter access) facilities conflicting with the drive. I am convinced however that this was more of a HP issue as they were using a variant of the original product.

Pleased with the basic concept of the software, I purchased the platinum edition almost immediately and removed the HP software from my machine. Surprise Surprise the problems went away and I recommend this product
