Customer Review: Memorex software good (or bad?) for your neck muscles
Summary: 1 Stars
This product is a sad joke. It's expensive of course. The paper is just heavyweight paper that's perforated so you can bend it and break out the inserts themselves... which takes some effort (not sure if it'd be quicker just getting heavyweight paper and using a paper cutting board). But, whatever.
However, the software is crap. That's the appropriate term. Reading this I can save you an hour of your precious time. No you can't make the template show right-side up. That's right... to use the software you have to TILT YOUR HEAD SIDEWAYS. I'm not kidding! I guess you could also turn your monitor on it's side. You can rotate the text so it shows the way it should. But when you edit it, it'll be sideways again. So you'll have to turn your head (or monitor) back and forth sideways. What kind of company would sell such a product?
And oh yeah... if you're looking for templates for the DVD Inserts? ... nada. They're not there!
Customer Review: Worked well for me
Summary: 4 Stars
These labels are good quality and scored for easy trimming by hand after printing. I had no real problems with the included software. It isn't what I would call commercial quality, but it worked fine for my needs. I liked the fact that it could take any image off my hard drive and automatically scale it to fit the label - I didn't have to scale the image manually. It also allowed me to print a calibration page to align the software to my printer (a simple process that it walks you through step-by-step), so that I wouldn't have to waste a label to align the printer. One thing to be aware of, though, is that these labels are size A4, not your standard 8-1/2 by 11 size. As long as your printer can be set to use A4 paper, you shouldn't have any problems.
Customer Review: Still excellent, but changed
Summary: 4 Stars
Between last year and this (2010) Memorex changed the stock on these case inserts. The new stock is a little thinner (which does help when tearing off the excess along the perforations) but is also changed how the printouts look. Colors and blacks are not as "deep" as they were on the older stock. I don't know if any of the older stock is still out there, but the difference is easy enough to tell. The newer stock has all the directional arrows, etc. which are printed on the page in Blue, where the older stock they were printed in black.
As the title says, still an excellent product and with some manipulation of printer controls you can get is better, but it still is not a rich and vibrant as the old stock.
Customer Review: Software broken, not supported
Summary: 1 Stars
The materials appear to be of a good quality, not that I'd know. The software that comes with it to print hasn't been updated in years, and its the original release. Sure enough, after spending days trying to get it to work at all it was clear the entire purchase was a waste of money. I checked the company's website about the software, and they have no updates in three years, no way of getting support.
I expect programs to have bugs; that's normal. The problem is this company apparently has no intention of either taking customer support requests and hasn't released even a bug patch in years, so the chances of it working on a modern computer with a modern printer is increasingly slim.
Customer Review: Works both REGULAR 14mm and 7mm
Summary: 3 Stars
Hello people! First let me tell you that this item. This works well with the regular DVD case and SLIM DVD case, yes you read it right it works with slim DVD cases as well BUT okay, but since it originally made for 14 mm or regular DVD cases and in order to make it work for the slim DVD cases is all you have to do is CUT, yes cut the spine..which for me still looks great and there is a pre cut lines for you to do that :) so I put 20 pieces of slim DVD cases without the use of a scissors... So there hope I made some help for telling you my experience today! Have a great day! :)
