Roxio Toast 4

Pros: cheap, excellent features, easy to use
Cons: can be quirky

Yes, I make Toast everyday and I am not referring to the doughy variety.... this oddly named program I suppose, gets it's name from the process of creating a CD, you burn a CD when you create it and I also burn my toast.... the correlation is where the...

Pros: New Features,
Cons: Sometimes Mp3 Burns don't work

Burning cd's is now extremely easy with the new Adaptec Toast 4.0. It also has a lot more features in it. My favorite part about Adaptec Toast is all you need to do is click on the file and drag it into the box to prepare the burning. The new Toast also...

Pros: Easy To Use
Cons: Help is Hard to Find

We use Adaptec Toast 4 Deluxe on a Mac G3, OS9, writing to a Que UPS Drive.

The truth is, around here my twelve-year-old son does most of the CD-burning, but he and I set up the software and I do know how to use it.

It's basically a...

Pros: A stable program with a wide range of features.
Cons: Useless for backup. MP3 functionality not up to snuff. Audio extractor doesn't quite work.

I like Toast because it's stable, and lets you burn almost any conceivable CD format. Ooops, no, wait. That DOESN'T include all the ISO formats, though one is lead to believe it does. This really p____d me off when I was still using OS/2. It's less...

Pros: very easy to use
Cons: none

I've used Toast occasionally for years, but it wasn't until I bought a CDRW for home use that I got to know the software and realize some of what I've been missing.

One of the best features, as far as I'm concerned, is the ability to make...

Pros: Very easy to use
Cons: Not too much competition, so it is on top of my list for Macintosh platform

At work, we have an Apple Macintosh Computer that is connected to a LaCie Yamaha CDRW. The Burner included Adaptec Toast and to my surprise is much more friendly, easy, and more reliable than the Windows version of Adaptec's CD Mastering application...

Pros: Only game in town
Cons: Modal

While Toast Pro may meet most people's CD-R burning needs its code may well need an overhaul. It can burn audio, Mac, Windows (Dos or Joliet) CDs. The pdf instruction manual is pretty hefty and describes Toasts many modes well.
Faults are:-
...

Pros: none
Cons: none

I bought this software thinking that it would not really do much like they said it does, but I just wanted to try it out. After I brought it home I tried copying my favorite songs on the cd and it really did have an ability to turn MP3 files into cd's...

Pros: Neat features.
Cons: No upgrade path.

I have the "OEM" version of Toast 4, and I have the "full" version of Toast 3.5.7.

This means that, if I want to buy Toast 4 deluxe, I have to pay *exactly* the same price as someone who has never heard of Adaptec...

Pros: It works well for audio
Cons: Freezes the system, crashes my system, and works poorly with downloaded mp3s

I like the simple drag and drop method, and burning ripped songs onto a CD is easy, but I hate that Toast freezes my computer for up to an hour. I hate that half the time after a CD is done, it doesn't eject, and the computer remains frozen so I have to...
