Overpriced

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

While the product is pretty good, specifically its video recording feature, I don't believe it worth $70 - it simply can't be that Tiger is only twice more complex and useful software than Snapz Pro (Tiger costs $130, Snapz Pro - $70, compare what each one can do, how much work and effort it took to develop each, et cetera). Also, considering how often you need to use the desktop movie recording - certainly not the best deal.

I would think that $$35-40 would be the reasonable price for it, which I'd pay, but not $70.

Overpriced - dylan3--2008

It's your call whether a piece of software is overpriced or not, of course. However, comparing anything dollar for feature with Tiger is unfair to small software developers, in my opinion. Tiger is So huge, and its price is So low (enabled by the miracle of volumes and cheap software distribution), this metric is just too punishing!

Plus, how does Adobe software (around $1,000) or even Microsoft Office ($400) stack up against this metric?

Overpriced - MyMac8MyPC

I agree, it is very overpriced. You can get MacCapture for 29 bucks and it does the same thing. If Snapz Pro was 30-40.00 it would be much more reasonable, and more people would buy it. You can sell one loaf of bread for $5.00, or 20 loaves of bread for $2.00. As a company, which one makes you more money?
