So-so product, but the price is compelling.
I'm always reticent to give low ratings to products that are distributed cost-free. Extra Photo SlideShow Free does what it is designed to do, in that it allows you to create a slide show from photos and place a soundtrack behind them. I successfully added over 2000 photos to a single slideshow and put an audio track behind them. Windows Movie Maker won't do that!! (I tried) There is no option to export to a DVD burn, but rather your show is saved in one of four file formats which you can then burn to DVD.I opted to not do this, and uninstalled the product, because the photo quality was degraded by the product so severely that some of the finer elements were no longer recognizable. The transitions from photo to photo were choppy, and the audio was degraded to the point that it was an annoyance rather than an enhancement.One could surmise that this was because of inadequate hardware, but this was done on a dual core proc at 2.7 GHz with four gigs of RAM.
