  It converts OK.

  Here's a warning you don't see until after they hijack your search "If you selected to install the AVG Security Toolbar, please refer to http://toolbar.avg.com/p-install for more details. and please refer to http://www.avg.com/us-en/secure-search-uninstall if you want to uninstall AVG toolbar."

  Summary

  If you hate hijacks then don't install this software.

• waste of money, extremely slow

  woodbehrMarch 4, 2012

  Pros

  none that I can think of, only thing it does do is convert an .aa file, big Deal!

  Cons

  Extremely slow, took 3 hrs to convert a file, chapters option doesn't work, to be able to copy converted files to a CD to listen in a car, you must determine the time allotted on the CD. If you close the program, none of the converted files are retained, and you must reconvert them to make CD's. The free test of the program will only convert 3 minutes worth of files, not an adequate test to see if the cost is really worth it.

  Summary

  Save your money! If you purchase this, you will be able to get responses from the support area of the software. If you choose to convert audiobook files to copy to a CD to listen to your audiobook, get ready for a full weekend of time to convert and copy one audiobook to multiple CD's 29 & counting for one 6 hr audiobook. Sorry I spent the money on this software, trying to get a refund (hopefully). One thing I did note, it is apparently produced by someone who is not familiar with the English language. After you run the program, files that are 'split' are listed as 'splited', apparently not understanding the word split is both present & past tense, depending on how it is used in reference to the subject.
