Could have been excellent... Except!
I bought this about a week after it was released and you should all be warned that it's full of ADWARE, which considering the high price is totally unacceptable and the suite keeps on pestering you to UPGRADE your new software! WHY?
You've just bought it. Perhaps PCPro may like to take these issues up with Cyberlink, because at the end of the day I'm very unhappy with constant pop-ups badgering me to upgrade to new software & Ad's!

video transcode not flexible
MediaEspresso 6 does convert videos very quickly using nVidia CUDA but there is no 2-pass option, so video quality is not optimal and files are very large compared to nero, badaboom and even freemakevideo converter.
