When I downloaded Popcorn 1 from Roxio it had a file size of 135 mb. This week I downloaded Popcorn 2 from Roxio and the file size was 21.6 mb.
Would some knowledgeable member please comment on the great difference in the above file sizes.
On downloading Popcorn 2 I presumed that as it was an upgrade it would replace Popcorn 1. I now have two completely seperate applications!
Do I have two seperate applications or are they in some way integrated?
Your comments would be greatly appreciated.

Well I dont know about the download, but my Popcorn 1 application is only 17.2 MB. And yes, Popcorn 1 and Popcorn 2 are separate applicaitons. You can run either one, just dont run both at the same time.

Your download of Popcorn 1 included the Discus RE disc labeling application and its very large art file. Don't throw those away if you choose to trash the Popcorn 1 application (which you might as well trash because you don't need it).
I'm just a fellow Toast-user so please don't blame Roxio for any misguidance I may provide. And do let me know if your issue gets solved. Cheers from Eugene, Oregon!

Thank you both for your prompt reply. I should have realized why the file was so large!! Considering that the bundled version of Discus RE is very restrictive I am surprised at the size. I am even more surprised that there is no User Manual available.

Magic Mouse has a download for an earlier Discus manual here. They are about to release a new version 4 that I've ordered. I'm also impressed with the disc labeling feature in the new version of The Print Shop.
Tsantee. Thank you once again for the info. Much appreciated.
