Easy CD & DVD Creator 6

I spent a lot of time reading the negative reviews for this product. I decided to buy it anyway. Prior to installing the software, I made a full back up of my system as other reviewers said that they had trouble booting up after installation. I am running Win XP Home and my installation worked without issue. I love the new interface and new tools available. I have not had one error or problem and the burning speed is about 25% faster than version 5. Make sure you completely remove all of version 5 before installing the new version and you shouldnt have any issues.

I put in an order for this (I had version 5 on a prior PC) so that Id 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 shouldnt have to deal with the kind of problems that bleeding-edge games or other exotic software present. Even with the current rebate Im out ... because I figured it couldnt be all bad. Forget it. Ill go back to the earlier version.

Worked great for me.

Just to add my own experience to those of other recent reviews... I installed v.6 on Win XP home edition and upon reboot, the system was completely unuseable! I am a programmer by profession and a hardware enthusiasist with experience building systems from the ground up. It took me three days to recover the system. ...just my 2 cents worth, but I thought you should be aware.

I have been very happy with Roxio products until this upgrade. This product should never have been released. During the upgrade, it destroyed my Windows 2000. All I had when Roxio got through with my machine is the blue screen of death. I had to reinstall Windows, ALL my programs ALL my drivers, and I had reset ALL my preferences and defaults, I never could recover my DSL connection. And my MP3 files all disappeared. I lost a weeks worth of work, probably several clients, and several thousand dollars. After speaking with Roxio technical help (on my dime, of course)for several hours, the person at Roxio admitted that THIS WAS CAUSED BY A KNOWN BUG. They had no work-around; they had not recalled the product; they had no warning for suckers like me. All they had was Im sorry. Thats not good enough. The icing on the cake is that the program doesnt even work well. I have yet to be able to make an audio cd that doesnt skip and distort. I hate to think about the data cds Ive made.

Seamless, fantastic, and stable. A solid addition to the computer. A bit more professional then the last version, Version 6 is flawless with Windows XP (SP1 needs to be installed) The drag feature is not only new but excellent. I would recommend this to any burner out there. make sure you read the requirements, and go to town!

The product was good but it is very slow or sluggish to load. Also, the process times need to be faster.

Roxios Easy CD & DVD Creator 6 is a huge improvement from Easy CD Creator 5. It has a smooth interface for editing video and burning to DVD. The CD burning of music and data is excellent. The price after rebates is very low, so nows the time to buy.

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 wed try the next step up. What a mistake! Version 6 takes forever to install, caused my pc to take forever to perform restarts, and wont 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 Roxios own website before wasting my time on this software.

All Roxio products Ive used on several different operating systems have always had one problem or another. I found their support staff to be worthless and returned my last Roxio Product vowing to never buy anything they made again. I know others rave about Roxio but I think as with all products there is always a certain percentage of dedicated enthusiasts that will support the product regardless of problems. System lock-ups might be expected on slower cpus with little memory but Ive had some powerhouses freeze up with Roxio.
