Home users make backup copies of their game CDs and movie DVDs, allowing the kids to treat multimedia disks roughly, without destroying their value.
Librarians and school administrators use Alcohol burning software to archive their institutions’ collections of recordable media. Protect themselves against the daily wear and tear that damages discs.
Business users use Alcohol burning software to make duplicate backup copies of software titles. Ensure that they will continue to have access to their licensed software, even if their physical CDs become damaged and unusable.
Alcohol 120% Features:
- Alcohol 120% enables you to make a duplicate backup to recordable media of nearly all your expensive Game/Software/DVD titles, and/or an image that can be mounted and run from any one of Alcohol’s virtual drives.
- No other emulation software enables you to create up to a staggering 31 virtual drives. This allows you to run game disc images directly from your hard drive, providing significantly faster access than a physical CD-ROM drive. Alcohol 120% is a powerful utility that uses a unique combination of options to ensure a perfect backup every time.
- All you need is a PC with a CD/DVD burner. No more replacing your expensive original discs due to loss, theft, scratches, or other media imperfections. Your duplicate works just like the original. Your entire collection can be archived, and your investment protected.
- Alcohol-created images mean that you always have your expensive media stored safely on your hard drive for instant retrieval at the click of a button.
- At the office. Many applications generally require the original disc to be in the computer’s CD-ROM drive. This lets multiple users access the same software while limiting simultaneous use, eliminating the need to purchase additional discs.
- Original pressed discs are expensive. Using the Alcohol writing engine, you can copy the original to inexpensive blank discs for distribution to your customers.
