The phrase one-trick pony comes pretty close to describing the anemic functionality of Audio CD Copier. Basically, the application rips an audio CD to a temporary WAV file, then burns it to another disc. Keeping with the minimalist theme is the absolutely drab interface, highlighted by a Start button, some progress bars, and a field for selecting a CD burner. The program does make quick work of copying discs by automating the few steps required and prompting the user for a blank CD when the time comes. Despite fulfilling its requirements, the program has a near-total lack of features that makes it a tough sell, especially when so many similar apps can do so much more.
What’s new in version 1.22
Version 1.22 is updated to be compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 7. It also has some bug fixes, improvements to the user interface, and much faster audio ripping code.
Installed initially for a blind client who needed a simple CD copier - worked fine.
Cons
User purchased new PC and retained the license key. Reinstalled trial and there was no place to enter the registration key. Attempted several times to contact manufacturer without success.
Summary
Pretty upsetting to pay for something that you cannot transfer to a new PC. I would gladly pay extra for a File - Options - Window - HELP menu where you can easily register the product or reach out to customer service and actually get a response.
Functionally program does as advertised... just don't upgrade your computer EVER!!! :-)

Pros
There is nothing wrong with being a one trick pony. This just what I needed, not a PC command center, where I have to get coordinates from Nasa before I copy my CD.
Cons
