DVD Cloner III Reviewer's Comments

DVD Cloner III with a powerful CSS decryptor copies almost any DVD and receives our "TopSoftwareReview.com #1." This product offers everything from exact 1:1 DVD copies to automatic compression to episode selection.

DVD Cloner 3 also offers a high level of flexibility and customization, including multiple languages and format options, and is compatible with most burners and DVD players.

We searched the net for the best prices and deals available. Here's what we found. Right now, when you purchase DVD Cloner III for $39.99 (the lowest price on the web) from online retailer, Herman Street, you also get #1 rated anti-spyware software Spy Sweeper for FREE. Even if you already have an anti-spyware program with this deal you can give this freebie away as a gift, add it to your PC for double protection or if you have two PCs use it for the other one.

Ease of Use, Rated 4
This product is exceptionally easy to use, no matter what format you are copying to. The screens are well designed and intuitive. The software guides you through the process of making copies including the selection of your source (where the original DVD is) and your target (what you want to save the copied movie to).

The help section is easily accessible and provides useful information; however, the product is so easy to use, we found that we didn’t have to consult it often.

Features, Rated 3.5
DVD Cloner III makes quality DVD copies quickly and gives you the option to copy bonus footage, subtitles, audio, language and menus. In addition, unlike most products, this cloner incorporates the ability to decrypt CSS encryption without requiring an additional download. With DVD Cloner III’s decryption tools, virtually any DVD or CD can be copied.

DVD Cloner 3 makes excellent, high-quality copies even if you are shrinking an entire full-length DVD (DVD-9) with all its bonus footage to a 4.5 GB DVD-R (DVD-5). It also supports copying to dual-layer DVD-Rs (DVD-9) so you don't need to compress anything. Note: You must have a dual-layer compatible DVD burner to take advantage of this feature.

If your burner is not capable of burning to a dual-layer DVD-9 disc, this software offers two good options. One, an excellent copy can be made by choosing “Movie Only,” this option cuts out additional bonus footage and menus, therefore requiring less compression. Secondly, you can split the entire DVD onto two DVD-5 discs with no quality loss.

In addition, with an upgrade from the manufacturer the software can copy DVD movies to AVI, SVCD or MPEG formats so you can burn to a CD and play in an SVCD compatible DVD player.

This software also has the ability to copy to your hard drive, which is a useful, energy saving feature for laptops. DVD Cloner III is extremely compatible with the ability to run in multiple languages including, English, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Greek, Hungarian and many more. It also supports PAL, NTSC, DVD+-R/RW, all home stand-alone DVD players and most DVD burners.

Ease of Installation and Setup, Rated 4
DVD Cloner III installs quickly and effortlessly. It does not require any additional downloads, for standard copying, since it includes a decryptor.

Quality of copy,Rated 4
This product makes outstanding 1:1 DVD copies—we were able to copy movies like “Lord of the Rings” and many other major new releases. Even the compressed DVD-9 to DVD-5 copies appeared to have little quality loss. The only problem we incurred was that this software does not have the ability to decrypt Sony films.

Program stability, Rated 4
We didn't encounter any problems or errors when we used this product. It proved to be compatible with our other software and burners and the copies played on all of our DVD players.

Summary:
DVD Cloner III, with its included CSS decryptor, trumps the competition. With this product, you can copy almost any DVD or CD to create quality back-up copies quickly.

Now you can archive your expensive originals into your media library and use your portable inexpensive copies without worrying about damage or theft. If something happens to your copy, just make another, it’s that simple.
