PowerDVD 8 was a modest upgrade from PowerDVD 7, some new concepts that were aimed to make PowerDVD more "fun", as opposed to any real playback improvements. This was in contrast to WinDVD 9, which focused on the HD aspect of movie playback and to better effect. What was worse was that PowerDVD 8 Ultra removed HD DVD playback, which although understandable from a cost cutting perspective, reduced the functions of PowerDVD while making the comparison with WinDVD (which still played HD DVDs) more favorable to WinDVD's advantage. So while there wasn't anything wrong with PowerDVD, and a 4.5/5 score proved this, it also wasn't as "right" as it should have been.

   $70??!! Way too many free apps that are better or just as good or maybe not as good. Bottom line is that they are free. VLC has many video and audio tweaks to satisfy most of us. Stick to an expensive home theater solution if you need more than VLC to experience DVD or BluRay movies.

   This is the best ways to take advantage of hardware acceleration from AMD and Nvidia. It's too bad that certain graphics card manufacturers like Sapphire disable AMD's amazing video processing on their graphics cards. The crappy built in DVD player in Windows Vista and Windows 7 fails every single test on the Silicon Optix benchmark DVD.
