    If you're online, then yes, it is available. All you have to do is click on BUY DOWNLOAD. It will cost you USD79.99 (after a mail-in rebate). It's full price is USD99.99. You can use a calculator to convert that to Pesos. Thanks.

    It's even cheaper at $59.99 if you're upgrading from Toast 7. Looks like an awesome upgrade.

    Thanks! :)

    I've installed Toast 8 and I really like the new interface. I don't see any signs of Blu-ray burning functionality, but I suppose it will just popup once a Blu-ray writer is installed on my Mac. This is probably the case with Tivo also.

    UPDATE: I've found Blu-ray burning. It's located as a drop-down tick on the small DVD button at the upper-right of the round red BURN button. Nice.

    I've seen the Photo Disc feature but I haven't tried it yet.

    I like the display pane's fade-in/out animation effects.

    I have a question regarding DivX Discs though. I've already burned a DivX disc and it reads well on my Mac. However, I don't have a DivX-capable DVD player. Has anyone tried these discs on these players? Does it work and how's the quality?

    Some new features from the main Toast app:
    DATA: Photo Disc
    COPY: Disc Spanning, Disc Recovery & Disc Image Merge

    Tried this and I kinda miss the old interface. It was way too easy to use.

    I love the new interface! It's sleek, and actually more intuitive than the previous version.

    Call me a sucker for anything new. At least this new interface goes well with Tiger's unified look. Now if only Finder, Safari, iCal, Address Book, DVD Player, iChat and QuickTime would follow suit. Tiger's got a big identity crisis.

    Purchased and downloading right now. I got the upgrade $59.99 price.

    EDIT:

    Finished downloading and unlocked my upgrade version of Toast 8. Am i suppose to just trash my Toast 7?

    And also Roxio never updated their Motion Picture HD to Universal. :)

    Great add on features, Fades and Effects.

    can somone clarify what this upgrade can do for us over here. we don't have tivo, neither is blu ray readily available, so why would we want to pay the $100 to buy this, and not really be able to do much more than the previous version. just wondering why?
