Roxio Popcorn™ Awarded Best
of Show at Macworld
Latest Honor Adds
to Long List of Prestigious Wins for Mac Product
Line
Macworld Expo & Convention, San
Francisco, California, Booth #517 (January 14,
2007) — Roxio, a division of Sonic Solutions® (NASDAQ:
SNIC) and producer of the best-selling digital
media software in the world, has been awarded Best
of Show at Macworld for Popcorn, the newest addition
to its Mac consumer software line. The win for
Popcorn, which enables users to copy non-encrypted
DVD-Video discs, marks the second consecutive year
Roxio's products have taken home the coveted prize
from the Macworld Conference & Expo.
In what Macworld editors describe
as one of the strongest shows for new and innovative
products in recent years, Popcorn was one of only
12 products recognized. In awarding Popcorn the
honor, the Macworld editors assert, “Popcorn
puts a friendly face on the backup of unencrypted
DVDs, using Roxio's proven Toast engine and an
intuitive visual interface.” Continues Jim
Dalrymple, editor online Macworld.com and MacCentral, “Roxio
has done with Popcorn for DVD burning what it did
with Toast® for CD burning. Popcorn is easy
to use, yet powerful for the end user.”
Popcorn enables consumers to back
up their non-encrypted DVD-Video discs. It features
flexible compression and extraction to fit video
content onto a single-layer recordable DVD, while
maximizing visual quality and use of disc space.
Popcorn integrates Toast-burning technology to
ensure superior results with legendary ease-of-use
and is compatible with discs created using Apple's
iDVD and DVD Studio Pro applications, as well as
those recorded with set-top DVD recorders.
“We are honored to be recognized
by the editors of Macworld, respected authorities
on Mac products,” said Dave Habiger , senior
vice president and general manager of Sonic® 's
Roxio division. “To be consistently singled
out by industry press is a tremendous accomplishment
that speaks volumes to the quality, reliability,
and value our software delivers.”
The Macworld win continues a long
tradition of excellence for Roxio's Mac product
line which has garnered numerous accolades from
premier industry magazines including Editor's Choice
from eMedia and TechEdge; top ratings from Macworld,
MacHome, MacFormat, MacPower and Applelinks; and “Best
of” awards from MacUser and C/NET. Most recently,
Roxio's Toast with Jam® , which last year captured
Best of Show from Macworld, earned a coveted Eddy
Award, which recognizes breakthrough products of
2004. In bestowing the honor, Macworld editors
state simply, “Roxio's Toast with Jam® is
the Best Way to Burn.”
