 Beware of rebates. Roxio won't pay, 2008-08-18
Having owned Toast and Popcorn I was happy with the product. But REBATE hassles are going to drive you nuts. Not only is their web site broken, you cannot create a ticket, contact them or log in reliably. I am so disappointed in rebates and from now on, I just wont buy. Why does the mfg even play this game unless they hope you forget to write in or fight for the money. I sent in everything, but of course the previous proof was missing. It is always something. I say just keep 8 and tell Roxio to lower the price. Don't fall for the crapola of rebates from the company. Amazon gave me the decent price.. so $[...] rebate is no big deal.. it is the hassle of dealing with moronic rebate deals. Amazon.. please make them stop. If retailers would just say no....

 Saves on disks, 2008-08-16
I gotta say that I like using the cheaper dvds for HD video. Many times I have to span the disks but its still better than buying HD dvds. Toast makes this possible. I compress as much as possible and use the director's cut tools to shorten the clips. Not to mention it has been reliable enough so that every disk has burned properly. Imagine if I got HD dvds and some of them were wasted. That is much worse than ruining regular dvds. Until the costs come down for high end dvds I'm making a boatful of dvds.
 None too helpful company, 2008-08-12
This company will not help you if you have problems.
Strongly recommend against.

Solved sticky problems, 2008-08-11
Before getting Toast 9 I was getting frustrated with burning dvds. It took me awhile to figure it out, but my old software didn't support dual layer and discs for dvd players. My son had a video project and needed to get it on a disk. After several tries I had to figure out what was going wrong. I guess there is something to being to laid back and letting the Mac work for you. I found out that new dvd formats necessitate the need for new programs. Several bonuses came out too. There is streaming in the box which gives an option to transferring to disk or device. Speaking of devices, I thought I was ok with my ipod conversion program. Toast is a bit faster and offers more compression choices. I'm glad I didn't have to upgrade any hardware yet so that was worth the price of the program alone.

Merges Xbox with Mac, 2008-08-10
I shouldn't be surprised since Microsoft and Apple have had some coop lately and it's easier to switch between systems. My Xbox 360 is invaluable and I want to make use of it as much as possible. Right now it is my dvd player. I can burn HD dvds on my Mac and make them playable on Xbox. I'm downloading media to my Mac and storing them on dvds. Some of the video is HD. As long as I'm taking the trouble to get the larger HD versions itd be a waste to store them in an inferior format. The encodings can be time consuming, but there is a pause to quit the encoding and do something else. It then resumes from where it left off.
