Thanks a lot for the fast reply friend.I also had read the history log on the Roxio site,but the main reason for this post was to ask that is it really worth the 18.xx MB download,as my existing Roxio is working fine.
I live in India and now I am on ISDN connection and it will take me somewhere around 1.5 hrs. to download the update?Is it worth it?
Waiting for some fast reply.....
Thanks once again all of you...

Pranav.

Note that the new update is for the Platinum version only as Roxio has not released the Basic version update. If you have Platinum and are not having any of the problems that were listed as fixed by the new release there is probably no need to install it unless you just want to have the latest version. This might be the last update since Version 6 is being released this month.

Thanks dudes..

Has anybody seen the user interface of Roxio EZCD 6?Is it as same as the EZCD 5?
Also does anybody know the price of the new version of Roxio's EZCD 6?
I think I will download the 5.3.4 patch if it the last of the 5.XX series and wait until I see the reviews of the new software and then think and buy it.By the way I am quite satisfied with EZCD 5 Platinum+DirectCD.
Thanks once again guys......
Pranav.

There is some information on version 6 at:

http://www.roxio.com/en/products/ecdc/features.jhtml

The local Best Buy here had it for $79.99 after rebates this weekend. Amazon.com also has it for $79.99. The few posts on Roxio's forum from users who purchased it have been positive.
