Cakewalk Pyro 2005

I have had Pyro 1.5 for years and just loved it! When I installed this new Pyro 5, it stripped my registration code for Pyro 1.5 and disabled the mp3 conversion feature. I really liked the old version better after trying the new one. I found a few glitches in Pyro 5, and now I can't use Pyro 1.5 anymore. Their tech support was not able to help me with getting the old one back, however he did make the effort.

i bought this program in hopes of be able to use it to burn music cd's and encourage my 11 year to be creative with some of his. Yeah, that's not going to happen.
The program makes it difficult to find the music on your computer, and if you're like me, and actually have stuff divided into folders by artist or category, you have to open each individual folder, copy the song you want on the CD and then go back to the main "my music" folder. That might work if you only have, say twenty or so folders, but I've copied my entire CD collection onto the ol' harddrive and I'm numbering in the hundreds. (as an aside - anyone else remember the days when Dad yelled at you for copying a whole CD and taking up his whole harddrive? :->)

Also as a note to anyone who owns a Sansa media player - this software claims to be compatible with most media players. Don't believe them. It doesn't work with my Sansa c250.

Anyhow, If you're looking for a product to burn music CD's, I'm sure that there's a better product out there. It isn't difficult to beat this one.
