Average score from experts who have reviewed this product.
One-stop shop for all types of media creation and burning. Accepts AVCHD camcorder movies. Burns Blu-ray video discs and high-def AVCHD on DVDs. Thorough help system.
Except for the main welcome screen, interface looks long in the tooth. Many bugs and crashes encountered in testing. Slower DVD burning and CD ripping than the competition. Too many features in the online service say "upgrade to Premium version."
Roxios latest suite adds a prettier start interface and a couple of new goodies like Beatmatch and Audiobook support, but the included apps are still too complex and generated plenty of errors during testing....
Wide variety of media-creation, -editing, and -sharing functions; attractive interface
New features may not be worth upgrade; Blu-ray authoring requires extra-cost plug-in; no built-in Blu-ray playback capabilities

Abstract: Plenty of burn for your buck. Jack of all trades and master of none - but useful and good value. Theres such a bewildering amount that Roxio Creator 2009 can do for you, its entirely understandable when one of the first things it offers is a series...
Abstract: This used to be called CD Creator and was one of the two main products in the field. Now of course the CD part is dropped mainly as most will use the DVD part as much if not more than the CD but it does a great deal more as well....
