:twisted: 1. What a REALLY BIG disappointment the new 3.0 is, nothing new, as far as I can tell, You still cannot sort by Author-Series-Book number, YOU have been able to sort by Author, Author Last name, Series (Stand Alone), or Book number. All these are in version 2. BUT NOT together. So what good does printing do if they are not listed by Author-Series-Book number.
2. Duplication books still has nothing done to it. There are many books with the same title. Yet there is only one book by a Author and that title. So duplication should look at more than the Title as that is worthless with books.
3. Why is this a Major upgrade. There is nothing that version 2 did not do, other than a few print, which are worthless as is.

Again this the biggest disappointment of the YEAR!!!!! :twisted:

I will not be paying for this upgrade as in my view, There is no value in this upgrade, nor any thing to justify charging for nothing we can use.

Unfortunately I have to agree with you.
Unlike you I was more trusting and paid up the upgrade fee before evaluating!
All I've noticed so far is new start icon (which after restart of PC reverted back to the old) and some bugs that I thought had been eliminated, now coming back!
I certainly hope further updates with version 3.0 will show some improvements on this.

I'm just wondering why the update isn't free?! I downloaded it, but after reading this review, and now finding out that the update isn't free, I'll just stick with the old.

I agree there is nothing new in this version that should require a user to pay for an update. Correct me if I'm wrong, but an upgrade should mean that New items that USERS have requested have been added that make the product easier to use. Now I must admit I use the program for Audiobooks only, that I have converted to MP3 format, and to be honest the program does not do any special for audiobooks.
1. Does not grab all the information from the ID Tag.
2. Has No way to grab the information from any web site that contains the information on the audiobook.
3. Does Not list in correct order, by Author, Series, Book Number.
4. And many more things that would help.

That all being said. You can do all but number 3 by hand. I use a program called LS. that will do number three, so I know it is possible, just beyond the programmer abilities, I believe. Since this has been an issue for 4 years now. I use iTunes as it grabs all the information, but has it's limits as well. So for now we have no program that is really #1 for Audiobooks. with over 7100 Audiobooks it would be nice to have a program that would do some of the work.

+1 on grabbing an information from an ID tag. Would save a lot of time with huge tasks. Image
