Crap app, crap support. I bought it specifically to create an ISO from an audio CD I needed to send for mastering, and it didn't work as advertised. The ISO files were empty...

I queried support on it and they still haven't replied a week later. Fully expecting a refund from these f**kers.

I tried to buy the Disco product in January 2010 having run the trial version. Although the website accepted my order, no product codes were sent, no replies to my emails and Paypal duly refunded my money. I assume the company behind Disco are no more, although the website is still live.

Julian, the button in discography that you weren’t sure about indexs the current disc. Just thought you might want to know :-)

Ah, that’s OK. Anyways, you’d think if we were getting a kickback I’d give it a bit better of a review, eh? :)

It’s not like we’re getting a kickback or anything.

Ah, fair enough – apologies for assuming the worst and thinking you’d be getting a cut from purchases made with the coupon code.

In addition to all of the comments above, it also should be noted that Disco does not support Disc at once (DAO), which tape traders rely upon.

I have to say that this is the best app for people who just want to quickly burn things– and it’s a great no brainer interface for parents or those who are less technically savvy. Toast is indeed wonderful, but there are tons of features most people will never use. Disco is for the 90% who just want to burn DVDs and CDs.

Hi,

I liked your post and just wanted to let you know I linked to it from my site. I look forwarding to checking out Disco for myself and seeing it in action. I have a feeling I will stick with Toast, but that smoke effect is pretty sweet.

Well we’re comparing Toast to Disco because, Disco lied to us . . . they said “Disco . . . we’re having Toast for breakfast.” If you didn’t notice they no longer use that tagline nor are they claiming to be a Toast killer. It was the Disco guys that said we weren’t going to need Toast anymore, we all bought . . . then we all were disapointed/sad/mad and complained about it. Now instead of addressing the lack of features, they just change the tag line.
