Review: Roxio Creator 2010

Working with Roxio Creator could easily become an expensive business. Opt for the Standard version of the program and you'll need to pay an extra £15 to create Blu-ray discs, while Standard and Pro users must also pay £25 for the plug-in to play back Blu-ray content. There's also a video capture USB cable costing £35 for capturing footage from older hardware such as VHS. The costs soon mount up, though, and a more specialist video-editing tool may suit many better. In other respects, though, this is a well-rounded package that will satisfy the needs of most users without breaking the bank. The Creator tag is indicative of the fact that its focus is creativity ? be it with photos, video or music. There are certainly cheaper options out there ? not least in Windows 7 ? as well as more advanced video editing options, but this suite provides a wide range of tools, making it a worthwhile purchase for anyone who wants more from their burner.Related LinksTechRadar's Reviews GuaranteeRead more graphics and media software reviewsRelated StoriesReview: CyberLink PowerDirector 8Review: Roxio Easy VHS to DVD for Mac
