Redesigned interface, new audio controls and filter effects, quick creation of DVDs
Poor documentation fails to explain many new features for first-time users
Toast 8 Titanium is recommended to anyone who wants to make their own compilation audio CDs or video DVDs. Our only complaint is that – as in the past – Roxio’s manual assumes far too much knowledge from first-time users. ...

Easy to use. Good iLife Integration and improved Bundled Software. Fit to DVD compression works with TiVo. Blu-Ray and Lightscribe Support.

Toast 8 Titaniums extras are only occasionally useful, but its vast support for disc burners and formats makes it easy to recommend. ...
