Marauder is a very good copy program; if that's what you need. It's fast, and
it's reliable. Those who actually own the program know that it copies 100% per
cent reliably using the "verbatim" mode. Many people leave it in the Analytical
mode when doing straight copies, and that can introduce all kinds of problems.
I would recommend it 100% for your personal use for backup, and for
duplication, it's very handy, with that write multiple disks from a memory
image of the disk (if you have enough memory). The fact that it will no longer
(supposedly) copy new protection schemes bothers me not at all. First of all, I
personally won't buy copy protected software, so that's no problem. And second
of all, no one needed Marauder to break that stuff anyway. Your neighborhood
hacker does it anyway. I wouldn't worry too much about Henry's comment, there.
