  1. Review - NirLauncher

    1.16.01 (Aug 26, 2012)

    A collection of very useful utilities, constantly updated. Thanks Nir!

  2. Review - Calibre

    0.8.66 (Aug 26, 2012)

    @Blaxima, these new releases come out, almost without fail, weekly. You can check the change log to see if there's anything that floats your boat. If not, keep the version you're using. To b**** about too many updates is insane.

    And BTW, "incremental updates" are applied to a base product. These aren't incremental updates. For those that don't realize, every release is the complete product.

  3. Review - Calibre

    0.8.58 (Jun 30, 2012)

    Just keeps getting better. I can't imagine trying to manage a huge ebook collection without Calibre. The recent interface tweaks are welcome too.
    Unbelievable to read a whine about "too many incremental updates". The author responds quickly to issues. Nobody is holding a gun to your head. Skip updating to whatever schedule suits you, but don't slam a product because it's updated too often.

  4. Review - The KMPlayer

    3.2.0.19 (Jun 16, 2012)

    Used this player for several years, but I fear it's jumped the shark.
    I kept hoping the random crashes would be cured by each new release, but no joy. Worse, as alluded to by several others, it's beginning to suffer feature bloat.

  5. Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows

    13.0 Beta 5 (May 27, 2012)

    Love this browser, and have for years, but disappointed that Mozilla has drank the Google KoolAid regarding releasing minor improvements as full-point releases. Going from v2 to 3 to 4 was a Big Deal, now it's .
