Areas of opportunities
Ever since this download has been released for free use by public, it hasn’t quite been greeted by enthusiasm, bar the initial euphoria. This is probably because of the fact that this disc burner needs Mac OS Classic, and compared to Windows, Mac users are relatively less. Some people, who have tried this disc burner out, seems to have issues installing this disc burner on to their Mac systems.
It has been over 8 years since the Apple Disc Burner has been released. In these 8 years, it has not received more than 1000 downloads from a major website. This probably tells you a lot on the kind of improvements needed for this disc burner
Final Rating
In terms of functionality alone, the Apple disc burner would have got full points from us. But when you put it with Mac OS Classic, and the ensuing problems, this disc burner gets 3 on 5.
Final Thoughts
If only all the pending problems of the Apple disc burner are solved, it could and still has the potential to be known as one of the disc burners around. For now, it claims to be a friendly disc burner to Mac OS Classic.
