Disco ReviewHit n' Run Club of Useless Promises - Version: 1.0.3, 7/27/2008 12:10PM PST

This developer promised the world, took our cash, and delivered very little. If you were to gauge this software against Toast—Toast would have a Ph.D while Disco is still in kindergarten. Soooooooo much hype you would have thought this application were running for President.

If you want to throw your money away on false promises, go ahead, but I will be avoiding this developer and any affiliations he has with other developers or businesses, period.

Disco Reviewgood idea, OK execution...terrible developer - Version: 1.0.3, 3/13/2008 07:31AM PST

It is just mediocre. You can get Toast for not much more after rebates and it will do MUCH more and get this...actually work! There are issues with disc spanning and other 'features' like the smoke. If you attempt to contact the developer then you will get no response. Thats what you get for buying from a (teenage) developer who says himself that he can't focus on projects but just hops from idea to idea. If you look at his history he hypes something to death, grabs the money from initial sales, and then *poof* gone. Not what I look for in software. I like it to work and then if there is a problem I want the developer to fix it (updates....1.0.3 came out a YEAR later) or at least reply to emails.

Disco Reviewnot even that pretty - Version: 1.0.3, 3/13/2008 04:48AM PST

ok, so let's be honest - it's very little more than a dressed up version of burn.app, so when you buy it, you expect it to be pretty. right out of the gate, i can't get the interactive smoke to work on either my imac (santa rosa) or my macbook pro (also santa rosa). both should be WAY more than sufficient for whatever graphic requirements smoke has, yet it works on neither. i've tried for nearly two weeks w/5 emails to get support to RESPOND AND ACKNOWLEDGE my problem, and they haven't.

save your money.
