Roxio Complaint - Roxio SUCKS!!! - Roxio Creator 9

Roxio Creator 9 - Complaint
Review by P.Oed. on 2010-05-24
I purchased Roxio Creator 9 and have had nothing but issues with it. I am so sick of companies like Roxio and for that matter Microsucks, playing all of us for suckers. In the old days when you were going to manufacture a product, you had an "R&D" department that did everything they could possibly do to break your product BEFORE it was put on the market so that consumers had a pretty good chance of purchasing reliable products. That's what made this country the greatest producer of products in the ENTIRE WORLD BAR NONE!!

However, with these companies, they box up their software, and then it's YOUR responsibility to see to it that it's updated. Hey!!!! Helloooooo????? When are we going to WISE UP and realize that all those "patches" and updates are only indications that the producers of this software are only making money hand over fist at YOUR expense and at YOUR LIABLITY???? If the product was that good to begin with, it would never need to be "patched" at all. How do you like spending your hard earned money for CRAP that doesn't work and then having to fix it yourself if you really want or need to use it??!!!!

NOT A HAPPY CAMPER,
p. oED!

The problem is that hackers are just as inventive and intelligent as the software writers. There's always going to be a way to mess with any type of program. Patches exist because of this.

Not all updates are released to fix bugs. Some updates are released to increase compatibility with new hardware and software products.

Sometimes, retail versions of software, as well as drivers or other software that comes with hardware devices, isn't necessarily the current version. Recently I bought a turntable for ripping records onto my hard drive/iTunes. The software CD that came with it wasn't the current version. I found out about that the hard way when it took several hours to convert the tracks from one 12-song LP record to iTunes...downloading the current version of the software from the turntable manufacturer's website speeded things up a lot. Turns out, the record conversion CD was version 1.5; the current version is 4.1. The older software was made to run on XP and iTunes 7, currently I have Windows 7 and iTunes 9.
