For some reason I cannot get it to rip anything past the first track. I have all tracks checked but when it completes the first track it bombs off with an error. This has happened several times in a row. I will try it again and try to get a screenshot to post to give a better idea of what my be happening. I like the idea of a free LAME ripper, but so far I will have to give it a 2 overall. |

Hmmm, who would have ever thought one of Adobe's largest competitors (Quark) would buddy up to another of Adobe's largest competitors (Microsoft)... Interesting. I guess they will list this as a way for Macs to create Silverlight content since their native tools are lacking adequate Mac support. |

Please let this be the final release of this app. It should have gone to a peaceful grave years ago. |

Have you been able to tell any additions/subtractions due to Yahoo? I know several companies that were about to switch over and then heard the news about Yahoo buying it. The switch over plans then stopped cold. A shame too, because it was (maybe still is?) a nice suite. |

Sorry... I evidently did not do the image code correctly. This should show the screengrab: http://img81.imageshack.us/my.php?image=silverlightzv4.jpg |

Microsoft is desperately pushing Silverlight as a Flash alternative. Even their download center is trying to get you to use it: [URL=http://img81.imageshack.us/my.php?image=silverlightzv4.jpg][IMG]http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/7738/silverlightzv4.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] |

I honestly still can't see why this Eudora/Thunderbird group project is happening. Eudora and its GUI seems so stuck in the mid-90's. I really hope it does not drag Thunderbird down the drain with it. It was a great app at one time, but now? |

Ooops, I should have said "Adobe Flash CS3 Video Encoder" in the previous post and not "Flash Media Encoder"... |

The description says "delivers support for the latest update of Adobe Flash Player 9" . I was hoping this would update Flash Media Encoder also, but after the update (which took forever to install), FME still only shows Flash 7 and 8 as being options. No sign of Flash 9. |

One thing I can mention is that it SMOKES Flash Media Encoder when it comes encoding FLV files. Using two cloned PowerMac G5 Dual 2.0Ghz systems: VisualHub on Standard took 48 minutes for a 60 minute video. Flash Media Encoder on Medium is still encoding and it started over 4 hours ago... The quality of the shorter tests I did were very similar and I am not really sure the little bit of difference justifies that extra wait time. |

I agree about the GPU load. I still don't understand why it is not effectively passed off to the GPU rather than spiking the CPU. I have to crank up the volume just to hear over my G5's fans. Uggh. |

I wish Blizz would pay this guy to put this functionality in the game... Or at least let it be "legal". Fishing is often the lest developed profession for a good reason. It can be a pain! |

Wonderful bit of code! It is my goto app for odd video formats. My only complaint is it seems sluggish/stuttering when making large jumps along a timeline and has the habit of pausing when I quit using Apple + Q. Other than that... GREAT. |

I agree it seems a bit steep. Hopefully the FREE "LiteIcon" app's development will continue and put some pressure on them to drop the price. I had little use for CandyBar, but will miss Pixadex. |

Come on Roxio... Are you learning from the Quark school of "force your customers to make a login to get a bug-fix patch"? If you are providing an update to fix bugs in your software, do NOT force users to login to get it! Time to make up another fake login... |

Would it actually kill them to not force you to fill out a "please spam me" form just to get an updater to fix their bugs? A free new tool or something similar and I could understand the extra hassle, but for an update? COME ON! |

For quite a few years we paid Media 100 a good deal of cash to only be rewarded with poor quality software. OUTSTANDING support when something came up, but still not worth the cost. They went into a downward spiral fighting the move to OS X as much as they could, we switched to FCP and have no regrets since. Good luck, but I won't shed any tears for them. |

Take the game for what it is and you won't be disappointed. Blizzard continues to release updates and new content as time goes by. The only paid update was the Burning Crusade which released a major series of new content. |

So I guess this is the first version post-Yahoo? |

My download was coming down as 79.4MB for the v.6.0.1. That seems a little bloated compared to previous versions. |

Thank you MacUpdate for providing this download without going through Cisco's HORRIBLE forced registration just to get a required utility when using THEIR routers. |

Great app that beats some of the bigger guys to the punch (I am looking at you Sorenson and AutoDesk). I only wish it could encode video for the Nokia n800. |

What? The Weather Channel still does actual weather? Every time in the past few years I have turned to it looking for weather info, they have some kind of docudrama going on. ;) |

What is up with the "read only"? Word 2007 for Windows (read only) Excel 2007 for Windows (read only) Microsoft should not have set the 07 format to be default in the new Office. Give it a version so people can actually have software to READ your files, then switch it. |

I would love to be able to suggest this to noobies as an Office alternative, but the X11 setup adds that one extra layer of complexity that seems to lose people. |

I agree about Firefox being rather ugly for a Mac app, but I solved that with the "GrApple UNO" theme from this site: http://www.takebacktheweb.org/ It makes Firefox look nice and Safari-like. |

When the product works, it works well. However I have been wondering if anyone is even working at this company any longer. Emails have not been returned. Phone calls always seem to go to voice mail. Due to AutoDesk's HORRIBLE mac support, we switched to Squeeze, but now their support is looking pretty dismal also. |

Wonderful small app to make image galleries. Slick templates and works well. My only requests are a couple of more templates and allow teh creation of "subalbums" instead of pulling all teh images into one big album. |

Absolutely loved this game. It is not for the faint of heart though. It can be a dark and broody storyline, but the modeling and the music were wonderful. The music alone is a great example of the feats Bungue was/is capable of doing. Too bad they were pulled away from Mac gaming by other temptaions... |
