Be warned about difficulty in installations!!

Have this version of EMC 8 on another computer...worked great. However, when got a new high level Dell and went to install would not even recognize the key code. Thinking that is was prohibited I purchased a new EMC 8 and this new CD would not recognize that key code. Other non-roxio program key codes were used without difficulty. Went to the Roxio site and discovered numerous people having installation problems particularily with those who had any roxio or sonic programs in that computer, many of these may be hidden. I have tried everything known to man to get this CD to even recognize its key...no go, even with the roxio support; clean install did not work. Now any pre-loaded roxio/sonic products have been removed! My advise...stay away from ALL roxio/sonic products at ALL costs until they completely fix this install problem. I have spent too much time on this issue...go elsewhere!! Hopefully I can return this pain of a software.

Too many problems. limitations

1. The Capture does not work, ever. Sometimes it completes, but the mpg has only a fraction of the DVD. And they crippled it anyway by no longer capturing from dvd files on a hard disk.^M

Top notch & extremly helpful

I do not normally take time to review products but I feel I must after reading some of the reviews here.Roxio Easy Media Creator 8.0 is an excellent product. I have been using it since October 17, 2005 and find it completely user friendly. Anyone who has had trouble should try some of the alternatives. Anyway I have used it on a daily basis for just over a year and find no flaws. I see some people are having trouble with it and believe they need to look deeper into their machine to resolve their issues or simply read the instructions!!!
