Just in time for the holidays, Roxio is introducing a new online service that enables consumers to create and share stunning multimedia slideshows on professionally produced DVDs. A perfect solution for last-minute shoppers, the new Roxio PhotoShow DVD service allows consumers to quickly turn personal photos and video clips into an expressive multimedia slideshow. Users can also create personalized disc and cover artwork based on a pre-designed style. Finalized projects are then produced, tested, packaged and shipped from a professional DVD production facility. The service is available today at www.roxio.com. DVDs usually cost $29.99; however, for a limited time, Roxio is offering a special savings coupon code (DVDOFFER) worth $10 off the purchase price.
"Roxio PhotoShow DVD turns still images and video clips into richly woven digital stories that convey the full emotion and feeling behind important family memories, milestones and events," said Matt DiMaria, general manager, Roxio division of Sonic Solution. "Not only an ideal solution for last minute holiday shoppers, Roxio PhotoShow DVDs are also a great way to share the season's events with those closest to us after the holidays are over."
Roxio PhotoShow DVD leads users through the process of creating a DVD in three easy steps: Uploading photos, creating the slideshow, and personalizing DVD artwork. Consumers can select from over 150 one-click themes that suit any occasion, enhance their story with over 500 animated graphics, add a commentary with more than 40 different title and caption treatments, a decorative border and pick the perfect accompanying soundtrack from more than 400 licensed professional music tracks.
Roxio PhotoShow DVD is based on Roxio Online, the company's online destination for families to create and share rich multimedia stories, which was announced earlier this year. Roxio Online is offered both as a free service for creating basic slideshows and as a premium subscription, which costs $39.99 a year. The premium service provides users access to a broad range of professionally-designed content for customizing and personalizing their shows, as well as a desktop client application for creating shows offline. Completed shows can be shared through email, and enjoyed on PCs, DVDs, TVs, handhelds, and popular social media sites.
