    I agree iDVD is good. But what did the Apple folks tell you to do about it? (It is possible to get a copy, but it involves some research.)

    Apple told me that iDVD is not offerd any more. But 1DVD is a good program I make my movies on imovie I just needed to make a DVD on my computer 1DVD has a free version it worked wel. So l I paid the $9.99 For the Pro version. I am a small bussness and cant afford FCP so I work with what I can. I cant spend $300.00 and only use it a few times.

    Also, there are boxed editions of iLife (which is the suite of apps that came with iDVD) still being sold on Amazon and other on line retailers. About $50 for an unopened box. Don't knowhow long that will be the case.

    This is not correct. Amazon sells iLife 11 on disc that includes iDVD.  As suppliers run low, Apple sends more to Amazon.   It's a big seller.

    Yes, there are other programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes, none of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD.

     

    With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.

     

    IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.

     

    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.  (works with all Mac OS 10.5 and newer.)
