1.0 out of 5 stars Musicmatch is a waste of money, August 18, 2005

A teacher (Maine) - See all my reviews

This review is from: MusicMatch Jukebox Deluxe (CD-ROM)

I started with a boxed version and found myself paying another $20 for an upgrade. This software is simply a gateway to their online music service. In itself that's not a bad thing but they have a history of using upgrades to sell you the same product several times. The current version in many ways is not as good as previous versions. It's a resource hog. If all you use your computer for is to listen to music you won't notice this but if you have to do anything else to do (other than word process), you'll find you'll be doing it in silence. Your real dissatisfaction will come when you need customer support. Ther responses you get are so generic you wonder if they even read your letter or if they can read at all. I had a problem and after five emails it is still unresolved. There are a lot of programs that will rip music and manage your files and there are a lot of suscription music services. Shop around a while. Musicmatch might not be exactly what you want.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Program for listening to or recording, March 17, 2003

This review is from: MusicMatch Jukebox Deluxe (CD-ROM)

I have used Music Match for about 1 1/2 years now. I listen to music on a regular basis while I'm studying, cleaning up my room, working on projects, etc. I have about 2 GB of music on my hard drive (all legal) and Music Match works great for listening to it, burning it to CD's, whatever.

I'd like to address some of the comments made by the gentleman above. I'm sure he's being honest about his experience, but I've done things very similar to his and recieved great results. I have a bunch of old records and tapes that I wanted to update to MP3 since I dont really use records and tapes and Music Match worked beutifully. However, there are a few things you have to know to make it work. First, to get any kind of decent sound, you must have an amplifier hooked up between your record player or whatever your source is and the computer. This solved all of the problems I experienced before I did this. The other thing is that under the recording settings you have to have the recording quality set... I use 160 kbps. If you have it set at 96 kbps or below, music will distort. For speech I use 64 kbps.

Overall, this is wonderful software and I highly recommend it for all your music needs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy, January 10, 2003

By 

Bryan Smith (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: MusicMatch Jukebox Deluxe (CD-ROM)

I ordered this for the capability to record from an outside source (record player, DAT machine) and encode into MP3 and CD formats. There are no level or tone controls for recording in this manner (only playback) and everything I recorded, despite the level or sampling rate I input the signal at, came out totally distorted from my DAT machine, my boombox, my 8 track, EVERYTHING. Their online music downloading or radio station or something like that is also no longer supported but they fail to tell you that before you buy it. I don't remember exactly what it is because that's not the reason I purchased. This is junk. Trust me. Go buy something better than this. I returned it. Now I want my shipping back too.
