• Confusing

  jsneeringerJuly 24, 2007

  Pros

  Nothing that I found, since I could not get it to work.

  Cons

  It is buggy and confusing. <p> <p>I wanted to rip the sound from a DVD to an MP3. tried to follow the instructions from ripping with track conversion, as described on page 3 of the "Getting Started" document. I right clicked as instructed, expecting to be offered a choice of formats. Instead, it asked for an output directory and was ready to begin ripping. I specified an output directory and told it to start. I was surprised to find there was nothing in the output directory, but it turned out it had put the output in the default directory instead of the one I specified. Why ask me for a directory if you're not going to use it. <p> <p>The "Getting Started" document had a picture of the format conversion dialog, but did not tell me how to get to it. <p> <p>I tried the help, but the index took me to page that must have been 1000 lines long, and there was no way to search within the page except y manually reading all of it. <p> <p>Next I discovered "Convert" on the "File" menu (not mentioned in the "Getting Started"), and was able to set the output format I wanted, at which point it finally informed me that it cannot do what I want. <p> <p>At that point, I uninstalled it, so I don't know what the rest is like. <p> <p>At the very least the documentation is atrocious and somtimes wrong.

• Great program!

  NotoriousReviewerJune 8, 2006

  Pros

  I like this product because I can burn more than 100 mp3 files to a cd, and play it on my car stereo, also I love it because it said 30 days trial, just change the month everytime that your trial ends!

  Cons

  Trial period is bad, but is ok just change the month when it ends to the month when you install it! :-)

• What they say and what they offer don't match or even resemble each other.

  VirtuosaSucksApril 4, 2005

  Pros

  none

  Cons

  This is my first and only download of this *cough cough* software. <p> <p>The ENORMOUS GAP between the web-based instruction, what the readme says, and what the software actually looks as, operates as and/or is available to do -- a GAP SO VAST that it's an excellent illustration of OBSCENITY! <p> <p>It doesn't burn, it doesn't rip, it doesn't work in this trial mode, IN STARK CONTRAST TO THE STATEMENTS ON THE WEBSITE AND IN THE README FILE.

  Pros

  Summary

  I have used Virtuosa to put my entire music collection on my computer. I use it to rip, burn, organize, and play all my media files. It's music database feature is awesome. The intuitive design has alowed me to effectively organize my music by artist and album (don't worry - there are plenty of other ways, artist/ album is just my favorite).

• colorful and fun and does the job

  October 23, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I downloaded this program and bought it for my g/f and it turned out to be really cool. It rips cds, converts files, and burns cds...and it makes it look super fansy! it's really colorful and fun and the visualizations are cool. She really likes it and I really like what it can do. I've seen a maybe one better product but this one is worth getting because it just looks so much cooler and it does the same thing...I am just picky about the organization of my music library.

  Summary

  Some CDs have a mixed contents of cd audio and data. Depending on the CD drive, Windows(R) AND Windows Media Player 10 (R) could recognise this CD as an AUDIO OR DATA Compact Disk. That's why manufacturers are making this "WHEEL" more specified.
