Works ok. Now I don't have to buy anymore duct tape and I haven't had to give my dvd player a kick in a long time. Would be even better if it had a pop-up stopper built right in.

maybe if this software has a suite of dvd related features, i would consider paying for it. i cant imagine anyone paying $20 for a piece of software that's supposed to supplement $30 hardware in such a useless way. how about a region free feature? or maybe something that tells me how much life is left in my drive or if my dvds are detereorating?

when dvd-rom drives are so cheap there is no point to this type of a program which just takes resources away. i'd really like to meet the person who actually pays for this program.

What, exactly, is the use of this program? Bit of a waste of time really!
