• Piece of cr*p

  Galin GeorgievMarch 21, 2016

  Pros

  None, really.

  Cons

  It wasted 10 CDs - it starts burning the disc, and certain point of time the disc is ejected with an error message. The CD is no longer usable after that exercise.

• Good program but STILL HAS MALWARE IN IT!

  Pros

  Good program, works well!

  Has "OpenCandy" adware in it, although most of the security programs remove it before it gets onto your computer.

• Very Slow on Older Hardware; Fails to Copy CD's Exactly

  PiratePete52May 24, 2014

  Pros

  Seems mostly to do what it claims.

  Cons

  Read from and wrote to optical drives much more slowly than the hardware was capable of doing. Did not make an exact copy of an audio CD; changed the date/time stamp.

  Summary

  I installed this software on a 10-year old Dell mini-tower with a Pentium 4 processor. The computer had been updated from Windows XP to Windows 7 with a recent, clean reinstall. The RAM was maxed-out at 4 GB and the latest BIOS installed. Using either a DVD drive or a 48x CD drive, and 52x Verbatim CD-R's, a straight copy of a commercial audio CD took about ten minutes. That was approximately 10x performance. I initially assumed this was a system problem. I spent hours on the net searching for a solution, verifying DMA settings, checking for updated drivers, and even tried disabling the anti-virus and firewall software. Nothing helped. I then installed Ashampoo Burning Studio FREE, and the problem disappeared. The same disk copy operation took about four minutes. Another problem with this software is that the date/time stamp on the copied audio tracks was the current date and time. As a result, Windows Media Player did not recognize the album. The Ashampoo software made an exact copy of the original CD.

• Very well designed and constructed

  Mark R. JonesMay 4, 2014

  Pros

  Easy to use, GUI is very straightforward, performs the functions quickly with status display to let you know where it is at in the processes. For my purposes, (see below), it worked perfectly.

  Cons

  None that I have found thus far.

  Summary

  I needed this for a Linux ISO Live CD, (Linux Newbie). As I see it with all of the other features packed into this I can see many other uses for this.

  perschApril 25, 2014

  Pros

  Never had a problem, quick as a bunny and does the job.

  Cons

  Yeah, interface is a little confusing but other than that a great tool. Been using it since its first release many moons ago.

  Summary

  Can't ask for more from a free software package. I use it all the time
