1.0 out of 5 stars Be warned if you buy this version, 1 Aug 2007
By D. Lane "Southcoaster" (Seaford, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I very recently purchased this version 4 from Amazon.
Upon seeing there was a V4.5 on the Sony web site, I assumed that there would be a free upgrade path.

I was wrong. There is no upgrade path from V4.0 to V4.5 from Sony.
When I approached Sony about this, basically the answer was `tough'.

Apart from any technical merits the software has, I personally will be very careful about purchasing any Sony product from now on.

I also agree with the other reviewer, Sony DVD Architect Studio is not the same as Sony DVD Architect. However you won't find that on any of the Sony web pages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Making Movies is so easy with this Sony Product, 4 April 2007
By Jane Pellaumail (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am relatively new to creating movies and I tend not to spend too long editing them, so my main criteria was burning them and sharing them with my friends and family. I have recently got married and had my cousin carry our camcorder for the day (not a good idea!!). Anyway, I wanted to share my special day with friends and family members and this Sony product promised to make it very easy. I looked at other products, but after reading a review of DVD Architect I thought at 25 pounds it was worth trying. I now have a number of great movie clips plus all the digital photos (which i didn't know you could use at the time of buying this product) all in a menu based DVD just like a proper movie. It doesn't take much to impress me, but the way this was so easy to use I was expecting a basic finish. BOY was I wrong, this really was a professional looking piece which I created!! I'd recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to spend time editing, but spend time looking back and laughing!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product but beware upgrades, 7 Nov 2008
By John Davis (Fife, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Like another reviewer, I thought my version of DVD Architect would be upgraded as at the time it was only a couple of months old, Alas I also got the Bum's rush from Sony.
The product itself is tremendous. I had been editing on Serif Movieplus5 but being frustrated at the DVD authoring stage which was the Serif product's weakspot. Buying DVD Architect made a major difference and I'm delighted with the results. I do have to say it can be quite complicated but the helps are very good and it allows some very sophisticated menus to created
