Review: A big waste of ... The most confusing and frunstrating interface and software program I've come across in a long time. Run, don't walk to look for other alternatives!

Review: I bought the Wiz and it does not work on Windows XP. When I fist installed it it gave me a couple error flags. First was it couldn't see my burner and the second was "run time error 680, DAC not initialized". On the Data becker site they offer a few patches to solve the problems. Unfortunately, they only solved one. My burner is now seen but "run time error 680..." is still stopping the program from running. I sought tech advice from Data Becker but they don't respond.
My recommendation: Don't buy this if you're using XP.

Review: Of the things it claims to do, I couldn't find one that I couldn't download FAR superior as freeware.

Review: When it comes to ripping CDs into MP3 files, I'm a nut about getting the best sound quality possible. My old MusicMatch program only goes up to 160kps, so I was hoping to find a cheap program that would enable me to create MP3 files in the 200 range or above. MP3 Wizard IS NOT IT. There were no reviews for the MP3 Wizard, and I was a little hesitant to order it. But since Data Becker's MP3 Editor had great reviews, I thought their Wizard would be up to the task. I received the box in the mail earlier this week, opened it up and found a lone CD-ROM. No manuals, no flyers, no nothing, just a CD in a plastic sleeve. I thought that was odd. I installed the software, and woah...it is the most UN-user-friendly program I've ever seen! I guess the programmers tried so hard to make it look "hi-tech" they didn't realize how confusing it was. I consider myself a very computer literate person, but I was struggling for two days to figure the MP3 Wizard out. And when I opened up the help menu, some of the words are in a different language (German?), which totally threw me off. But the instructions are indeed in English. Salvation? Nope. The help menu didn't help me anyway. So now I have an open software product sitting on my desk that I wish I could return, but I know I'm stuck with. Anybody know any good programs to rip CDs into 200-and-above-range MP3 files? Because MP3 Wizard is not it.
