Roxio to soon launch Toast 7 Titanium for Mac
It can be considered the Nero for the Macintosh. Roxio would be launching their popular CD and DVD burning software for the Mac ‘Toast 7 Titanium’ at the end of the month. This new update is expected to look and feel like the currently available version but would feature various feature updates under the hood. The application would now come with support for the popular DivX video compression and it would let users browser through iLife content.
The company expects to make available the application in their stores in the United States on August 31, 2005. This update would be available for around $99, with a $20 rebate form inside the box for users of older versions of Toast and other products. Roxio has already alerted their existing customers about this upcoming update through emailers and newsletters. The application features the slogan: “Easier, Better, Possible†and plans to justify it in its latest avatar.
The company has added an iLife Browser to the latest update enabling drag and drop support for dragging files from iLife applications directly into toast. Users can as a result now use files from inside iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and iDVD to write them on CDs and DVDs. the software also offers integration with Elgato’s EyeTV PVR software enabling drag and drop support for these recorded files.
This update would also bring support for the data spanning enabling the users to take backups of files large enough not to fit a single unit of data storage. All in all this is a must update application for the Macintosh users.

I hope Toast can finally (again) work with Apple iTMS AAC files … what’s the point of buying these crappy DRM’d files if you can’t burn them with Toast? What is Roxio / Apple thinking?

I’m sure it can’t… since Apple wants a monopoly on working with these files.
It wasn’t Roxio that willingly took this feature out of Toast – I’m sure Apple forced them. Why would a company willingly remove a feature that people liked.
