In-depth review on Toast 7

Macintouch has published a "first look" review on the recently-announced Toast 7 from Roxio. The review is fairly thorough, touching on features I hadn't even heard of yet like full on video conversion: "Found a great MPEG video on the net you want to use in your family vacation iMovie? Toast will convert it to DV for you – something iMovie can't do." Now that, my fellow Mac users, is cool.

One common sense caveat they ran into is moving files that are set to be burned. This caused an error during a burn, and will render a multi-disc backup useless. But since you shouldn't be moving files that are set to be burned whether using Toast 7 or Toast 1, I don't think it's too big of a deal.

I'd recommend checking out Macintouch's first look, as there's a ton of new stuff that might even make me upgrade. And before you ask: no, this post was in no way sponsored by Roxio. Though I am certainly not opposed to accepting a free copy from Roxio since I just gave them a healthy dose of free publicity!  ;)
