Great product that supports audio and video for MAC. A must for all who utilize audio, video recording and print their own CD/DVD Labels. Works without problems and is very easy to use. Vast improvement from Toast 7 and 8 versions.

My Final Cut Express 4 software came as promised: new and unopened. It also came faster than promised which was a great plus. It is nice to finally find a company which delivers what it promises.

Final Draft 7 Professional Scriptwriting Win/Mac

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Video and Music
from: Final Draft

April 01, 2004
I am a beginning scriptwriter and I found the software easy to use, and undestandable - however, it does on occasion crash, so I put my automatic save at 3 minutes. Also, you have to think twice when saving, because the fdr files can only be edited in Final Draft, so you need to make a rich text backup as well. But, let me tell you if you are looking for a way to save time - this is the product you want to get

Nero 8 Ultra Edition [OLD VERSION]

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Video and Music
from: Nero Inc.

September 01, 2007
My opinion of this product is, it is good CD burning software but has terrible product support. It used to be good for creating DVD video but one of their software updates seems to have destroyed that ability. Now, instead of releasing another update to fix what they broke, it seems they expect people to just buy the newest version, and pay another $70 or so to get back what was already paid for. It also seems that, instead of fixing the problem, they just removed the bit about being able to author a DVD from all of the promotional material. I am giving this product the lowest possible rating just because, in my opinion, it doesn't do what it was advertised to do. If you are looking for video editing software, I recommend Pinnacle Studio instead of this ... Read More:

Roxio Creator 2009

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Video and Music
from: Roxio

September 09, 2008
When I got Creator 8 I needed the dual layer burning feature. Now I need HD video burning, better music and video features, and portable device conversions. That's the reason I upgraded to Creator 2009. Like others I wonder if anyone is confused with the dropping of the version numbers and using the year to name the suite. I also got the Ultimate version this time to get the tape converter device.

I agree with others that the interface is much easier to use. With so many programs it's a big deal to be able to navigate around. IT still has user-friendly burning programs. Even making an HD formatted disk on a dual-layer dvd standard burner was straight forward. It also doesn't hurt that it's a way to save money on disks, especially in ... Read More:

Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9 Platinum Pro Pack

from: Sony Creative Software

August 01, 2008
Product does a great job of allowing you to edit and create. Does require some practice, since it does so much. I would recommend Movie Studio 9 to anyone who is serious and would like to be able to do some creative and unique presentations and videos. The Youtube feature is very convenient.

Movie Magic Screenwriter Version 6

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Video and Music
from: Write Brothers

August 17, 2007
I've been using Movie Magic for over 15 years and lemme tell you this is the worst version ever! It's amazing, but they've screwed up so much in this "new & improved" version that it's almost not worth reviewing (let alone buying). Large chunks of what you're writing will suddenly vanish from the screen because of a margin wraparound bug; call tech support and they'll tell you not to worry because it's not really gone - it's just not there on the screen. What? Huh? You also get error messages for no apparent reason that will send you in endless loops of frustration that would make Kafka proud. In short, do yourself a favor: BUY FINAL DRAFT. Loyalty schmoyalty, that's what I'm going to do!

PowerDirector7 Deluxe

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Video and Music
from: CyberLink

April 30, 2008
This product creates professional quality videos but if you have a question or need instruction....good luck. The tutorials are limited. They don't have a support phone number and an email response can take days. I would rate the product 5 stars and the support 2 stars.
