CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Need a utility to create and burn backups of your CDs and DVDs? Alcohol 120% can handle just about all of them. Popular for its ripping speeds, it only lacks in the options department--they're a bit thin.
Its wizard-based interface is handy for managing CD images and virtual drives. The program handles most disc image formats, including ISO, Nero, CloneCD, and CDRWIN. Profiles let you save copy settings for audio, game, data, discs. Beyond the wizard, the interface is sparse. Still, the functionality of the application, which should satisfy all users, justifies its price.
Publisher's description
From Alcohol Software :Alcohol 120% can handle the creation of 31 virtual CD and DVD-ROMs, allowing the user to play discs without needing the physical disc. Users can copy CDs and DVDs to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, and DVD+RW discs. The reading speed of a virtual CD-ROM is 200x. It supports normal CD, DVD, and CD RAW subchannel reading methods. The RAW reading method enables users to emulate all CDs. Alcohol 120% supports numerous CD (CD-DA, CD+G, CD-ROM, CD-XA, VideoCD, Photo CD) and DVD (DVD-ROM, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio) formats and all current (ATAPI & SCSI) drives. The latest version adds two more profiles to the data type options and includes support for unusually formatted DVD+RW discs formatted by other software.

Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.2.1705
"Excellent emulating and burning software"
Pros: Professionally developed interface and set of functions do this product by one of the best. The primary goal of the program - creation of virtual disks, but Alcohol120 % also copies disks and writes burns disc images (iso, bin, nrg and more). This software uses low system resources.
Recommended.
Cons: For inexperienced users the product can seem complex in use. Not cheap.

Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.2.1705
Pros: Easily mount ISOs, BINs, or any other CD/DVD images onto the virtual drive supplied with Alcohol 120%. No need for Alcohol 120% to run in the background; easily mount, unmount, and switch between CD/DVD images directly in Windows explorer browser. Virtual CD/DVDs operate VERY FAST, reading directly from the HDD. Also includes various CD protection emulations and such for certain CD images to work like the real CD. Several other custimizations and options available within program.
Cons: The CD/DVD images require ALOT of hard drive space, make sure you've got enough room. Some CD images will not work perfectly if they use CD protection.
