There was a time when a software ­manufacturer could produce a single piece of multimedia software that would do a ­single job. That time has long since passed. If you want to stay competitive you have to build a suite. Everything is a suite these days. This is software that does everything you want and then some.

Music Lab 10 is a suite. It does the basic things that many other suites like it can do. It can rip all your music from CD and make MP3s for your iPod or similar device. It can arrange all your songs into categories and playlists. It can even help you convert your LP and audio tapes.

But then it can do some very clever things. It can burn using multiple drives. Now that’s clever. That means you can write two CDs at once. It can also write even the longest of your playlists to multiple CDs. You can also set Music Lab up to record all your favourite shows and music straight off the Internet. Now that is clever.

Purchase Music Lab 10 online for R499 (incl VAT) from www.phoenixsoftware.co.za.
