Review by PhotoGraphics

I’m sorry, CyberLink, but are you still selling a product like PowerDVD. And charging money for it?nn10-15 years ago a product like this was absolutely necessary. Today’s both Macs and PC’s come with media playback software and photo management tools that do exactly the same thing as almost everything PowerDVD does. The only result I could see is it includes a few minor features for enhancing playback quality. Again, years ago that may have been cool, but today the vast majority of people who will watch movies will do so on their high-resolution flat-screen TV, or their tablet PC (or even smartphone). I can’t see much of a market anymore for software to help watch DVD’s on a computer.

On my desktop system it seemed to bog down system resources so after I evaluated it I uninstalled it. I didn’t lose any functionality in doing so.
