CNET Editors' review
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.
Alcohol120% - Create virtual CD/DVD-ROMs and burn backup copies of your discs - Download Video Previews: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 1.9.5.28 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.5.28

I've been using Alcohol 120% for a little over a year now, it can read/burn all popular CD images, it's an essential tool for anyone who wants to backup copies of games/software and most other media types.

"BAD SOFTWARE - I'll Explain why..."
Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.5.28
Cons
Yeah this software totally screwed my machine. I suppose it lived up to its actual name "Alcohol" it made my pc so drunk it wouldnt stay running for no more then 4 minutes before my machine would restart and would repeat it all over again each time I had to reboot. I needed to burn a mac image to cd and had other mac emulators & programs running. There may have been an possible conflict with the software. I still think the software is crap. I removed it and now my machine is fine!

"Makes great copies for CD images"
Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.5.28
Pros
Simple interface and you can burn CD images perfectly in different formats.
Cons
Can't burn individual files i.e. movies, music. Nero is better suited for this, but SUCKS at image burning.

"Good for what the program is really intended for."
Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.5.28
Pros
Good copy protection emulation, + virtual drives, allows you to make backups of your Games.
Cons
Not as good as Nero for general disc burning including DVD's. Some types of recent copy protected games blacklist Alcohol, and other emulation software and won't play, although there is supposed to be a way around this, rename the drivers it installs (expert mode).

"Simple, Quick and Easy!"
Version: Alcohol 120% 1.9.5.28
Pros
It is a program staying shadowed by nero but I personally prefer 120%. Why? It is quite quick and very simple to burn emulate...
Cons
For beginners it could have a bit more information on screen. Explaining what you are starting to do and what will the program do.
