Toast 10 is primarily a disk burning utility, and a very competent one at that. Although OS X includes a built in disk burning utility, it's basic to say the least. Toast has all the burning functions you would ever need - Data, Audio/MP3 CDs, enhanced Audio (i.e. Audio and Video on the one disk), Video DVDs, Blu-ray disks (you get a free plug-in to allow you to author blu-ray and you can even burn HD content to a standard DVD and play it back on your blu-ray player; a great way to get the quality of HD, although you can only fit approx. 20 mins of content on a DVD). Toast also taps in to Apple's iLife media browser, allowing you to easily take your media from iLife and export it using Toast.
As well as all of these fairly standard features, Toast is also an excellent file converter for video and audio. Take a Windows Media video for instance, and it can easily convert it for playback on your Apple TV, iPhone/iPod, Blackberry or games console. You can even convert a whole batch of files at one time. One really interesting feature is that you can import a multi-cd audio book, and Toast will automatically convert it to a singe audio file with chapter markers for you to send to iTunes.
The interface is really straightforward - just drag and drop. I've been a user of toast for 5 years now, and this is a great evolution of the product. It seems very fast and stable (I had problems with the previous version frequently crashing); it converted a batch of 35 video files without a problem.
To summarise, this is an excellent utility for the Mac - a great compliment to iLife, and in my opinion an essential program.

I suspect that very few Mac owners are unfamiliar with Roxio's Toast applications in one form or another. For me, this was an upgrade from Toast 7 - so a real change.
1. Installation
Installation seemed a little bit convoluted, - copying a folder to the apps folder and then running an installer... It seemed one step too many but it was up and ready in 10 minutes. It doesn't detect previous versions either and runs alongside. (this can cause problems with the embedded tools if you don't uninstall your old version first)
2. Interface
The interface is familiar and pleasingly simple. Lots of "drag and drop" - simple selections for disc types accommodating mac, pc, DVD, ISO 9660 and photo disc; which I have found a boon in not wasting optical media. There is a nice use of plain english for the options windows (which open discretely and unobtrusively) asking for example, if you wish to span content over multiple discs, add CD text to an audio CD and so on.
This version comes with a free add-on for blu-ray discs. As I don't have a blu-ray burner, I cannot say much about this, other than it seems good value to have included it.
3. Feature Set
A very broad feature set, contained in the spec for this product page, but leaping out as innovative and new are:
The integration for iDevices, the AppleTV and Elgato's EyeTV
There is also a very useful streaming media capture option for ripping live streams
Assistance in digitising Vinyl and magnetic cassette tape, and editing out hiss and pop (it integrates into iTunes by creating Apple lossless track data.
The ability to rip CD based audiobooks and export them to iPhones and iPods with all the audiobook features intact.... Read more ›

The Mac already provides pretty good tools for creating and burning CDs and DVDs, so what's the reason for buying a separate product? Well the tools already present on many Macs tend to be focused on a single task, whereas Toast is the `Jack of all trades' approach.
As with most Mac applications, installation is straightforward and once that's done you find a Toast folder inside your Applications folder that contains the various Toast utilities. Launching the main application (Toast Titanium) lets you quickly choose the type of task, be it creating a data, audio or video disk, or copying and converting existing work. For the data and audio disk tasks, everything you'd expect is there and you're given a fairly intuitive interface (including drag & drop for content management) that gives you control over pretty much every aspect of what you need to do. In that respect Toast lets you tinker more than the default Apple apps. Video disk creation is also fairly intuitive, although you need to have a pretty good idea of what you're doing before you embark on creating the disk. This is because certain types of video files lend themselves better to processing in certain ways.
Copying (unprotected) disks and creating disks from (ISO) image files or even creating image files is as easy as you'd expect, leaving `Convert' as the last of the features of the main program. This is where you're most likely to encounter problems, although this isn't the fault of the software per se, it's more just down to the complexity of converting media from one type to another - some things work well, others don't....

Good at what it does, but... flawed by unresponsive developers?
Doesn't handle Matroska .mkv's, and judging from the forums, the Dev team don't really care unless Apple fix it for them. Read more

Disappointed
Was so disappointed in this product very basic not a patch on the p.c. version creator 2009 which i find much easier to to work with so i only give this a dodgy 3 star.

Not so great
Honestly I think if you own a mac, Finder alone has a much better disc burning process than this piece of software. Read more

Only for good people!
By all accounts, and I'm not a MAC user - I gave this to my Son-in-law to try out, this is better than the basic built in copiers and converters on the MAC. Read more

An excellent Mac utility
Toast has for many years been an excellent utility, pretty much doing everything you would ever want to do with discs. Ten years ago it was pretty much out on its own. Read more

Doesn't do much, but does it well
Toast is a format converter - it copies information (data, music, video) from one format (cd, dvd, hd, blu-ray) and writes it in another. Read more

Verdict improved after six months
Amazing thing, hindsight. Toast 10 has just proved itself magnificently by painlessly converting an mp4 file I'd copied from VHS to DVD video. Drag and drop and you're done. Read more

...no great leap forward...
Well this gave me an excuse to bring my Mac out from storage and have a play around with a product I'd heard good things about. And, well, um, it's OK. Read more
