Roxio even gave me the $100 price in Canadian dollars as opposed to US dollars. The only extra software that I was really interested in was the SoundSoap SE 2 application, but I figured the whole thing might be worth the expense at this point in time.Īt first, things went fairly smoothly. But Roxio tends not to have very attractive purchasing options once you skip a version number, so I knew that if I ever decided I needed to upgrade my copy of Toast, I would have to pay something close to the full price anyway-and now for that price I could get the “Pro” version. I didn’t really need to upgrade my existing copy of Toast (Toast 8 Titanium, purchased in early 2007), which was still working fine and meeting my needs. The special price meant that it was the same price as Toast 10 without the “Pro” part, i.e. include updates for Spin Doctor and Motion Pictures.A few weeks ago, I got a promotional e-mail from Roxio inviting me to purchase the latest version of its flagship CD/DVD recording software for Mac OS X, Toast 10 Titanium Pro, for a special price of $100.Miscellaneous cosmetic interface issues for full Panther support.General performance, stability and launch improvements.More accurate progress and time remaining calculations.More accurate disc space required calculations.Mac OS 10.2.8 or higher is required for USB 2.0 support.
