Title: The Worst of Both Worlds
Review: I was disappointed with Roxio 8.0. Having used versions 6.0 and 7.0 in the past, I was hoping that version 8.0 would be invigorated with some fresh ideas after having been acquired by Sonic. While I had found Roxio to be serviceable in the past, there were a few idiosyncrasies that I had long found annoying and had hoped that they would be eliminated in this new version. Instead, Sonic has married many of the nuisances that caused me to first choose Roxio over RecordNow with the ones already present in Roxio, to produce a product that I loath using. In fact, I removed it from my computer.This is not to say that the product doesn't work, or that it's not feature laden, just that it doesn't suit my personal preference. It's the sort of thing that, for me, tips the scales in favor Nero Ultra Edition. Many users will probably be pleased with their purchase of Roxio 8.0, but if you're on the fence and looking to decide between Roxio and Nero, my recommendation is to go with Nero.
