Review: Roxio Toast 10 Titanium and Toast 10 Titanium Pro
‘Grady’s Power Page PA -
Burning CDs or DVDs is a simple matter of inserting the disc into you machine and dragging your data into the main Toast window. Roxio has eliminated a number of supported features from version 9 most of which are obsolete while adding several new features. Notable deletions from this version of Toast are support for HD-DVD and Divx video discs. While I doubt many people will miss the HD-DVD support Divx may be another matter. Divx is still a very popular video format and while I usually find myself using h. 264 there have been times when I encoded in Divx for one reason or another. Is the loss of Divx a deal breaker? Hardly.
