Review by Roger J. Buffington

I have nicknamed this software Bugmaster. It lightened my wallet by $100 at Circuit City. I needed a program to edit a DVD home movie on a crash basis. I wasted an entire evening trying to get the software to work. It does not work. I tried it on two different late-model computers. No dice. I had owned a Roxio product 5 or 6 years ago, so I tried logging onto their website to see if there was a bug fix, but because I could not remember the ancient password, no luck there either, and although they said they had emailed me a new password, they had not.

Fact is, I am tired of software vendors that do this–they package a bug-ridden and downright inoperable software program hoping to sucker users into buying it, with the intention of putting their users through some god-awful time consuming patching process. They have to know that their software does not work.

Avoid this product. I would not want it even if it were free. My time is not free.
