"Blaze Media Pro waste of time and money"
Version: Blaze Media Pro 9.0
Pros
Cute ad caught me, fool me one shame on me
Cons
Too expensive for software that should be freeware. The layout is not one that makes sense from a programmer's standpoint or for neophytes. Even during installation there were problems. How do firms stay in business with bad products.
Summary
Waste of money, time and energy.

"Several problem with this."
Version: Blaze Media Pro 9.0
Pros
It allows you to edit video (if the format is supported) the old-fashioned way. By selecting a section and then deleting it. It doesn't use the 'clip' approach, and that's very nice. Low learning curve.
Cons
Each time you change your hard drive or get a new computer, you have to pay for a new license. I've paid for mine three times. Over time, it's a VERY expensive software. It has limited functions, too. You can't reverse a video clip, for example.
Summary
This is a good video editor, but it's only good for cutting. It can't 'paste', it fails to extract audio (although it claims to be able to), it does not support many video formats. It has audio tools, too, but these are so common that there is no point in buying this thing because of that. The worst feature is that you have to pay again and again, unless you choose never to upgrade your computer. There is no telephone support whatsoever. The phone number they have listed with paypal has said that there is 'temporarily' no phone support, but 'temporary' has lasted about three years. I've paid over 100 dollars for this 50 dollar software, and that's the most rapacious policy I've ever seen in any software. If you are a beginner in video editing, do yourself a favor, and don't start out with this mediocre software, so you don't get in the habit of editing their way. There is severe loss of resolution when you save files, and a shortage of video profiles, too. If you have a big video (bigger than 800x600), it will shrink your file to one of it's preferred sizes. There are no updates (except ones that protect the publisher), and no additional codecs or video profiles, so you're stuck with the ones they offer.
All in all, this is a very self-important software, which describes itself as a professionsal tool, but creates blurry videos, and pretends that it's worht paying for again and again. "Blaze Media Pro: The software that goes on taking". I read on one of their forums that their justification for their policy, which is that you should read the license carefully, and it's not their fault if you don't know about buying again and again. They said that if you don't like it, don't buy it. I'm advising you not to buy it, 'cause I don't like having paid for it three times.
If you have one or two videos to edit, and you can do it in under 15 days, get it, and then get rid of it before you have to pay. -
"Purchased for Audio - It Didn't Work"
Version: Blaze Media Pro 9.0
Pros
Nothing in this moment.
Cons
It didn't record streaming audio from Windows Media Player. Because I'd successfully used Blaze Media Pro versions 6.x and 7.x on three different Windows XP Pro boxes, I thought it would work on XP Pro Media Center Edition 2002. Nope.
Summary
I'm hoping that the rest of the sound and video editing works O.K. If it does, I'll update my review.
