Introducing Media Suite 14 | CyberLink

Cyberlink is a company that you likely best know for its PowerDVD player software, but it’s entire suite of software covers everything from editing photos and video, to burning discs, watching movies, and even file backup and audio editing. The Taiwan-based company announced this week the launch of its latest version of CyberLink Media Suite 14, which packs all 15 of CyberLink’s content and media product programs into one very affordable package.

A few of the notable feature updates to the suite over Media Suite 13 are drag-and-drop video templates to make editing your videos for a certain look much quicker, Photoshop-esque layer editing and portrait retouching tools for photo design, as well as a new video player mode that CyberLink claims enables a “truly cinematic movie experience on big-screen TVs.”

“Our aim with Media Suite is to make digital multimedia software exciting and accessible to everyone,” said Dr. Jau Huang, Chairman and CEO of CyberLink. “It’s the ideal solution for families who want high-quality software that serves all their multimedia needs without compromising their budgets.”

PowerDVD, the DVD/Disc playing software headlines the programs in Media Suite 14, which also includes PowerDirector (video editing), PhotoDirector (photo editing), Power2Go (disc burning), MediaEspresso (media conversion), Media Show (media catalog/organization), Wave Editor 2 (audio editing), and more.

Media Suite 14 is now available for download from CyberLink over on the company’s website, with the Ultra version coming in at the price of $130 and the Ultimate version (which includes extra mobile apps and movie making content packs) costing a bit more at $150. If you happen to already own a previous version of CyberLink’s Media Suite, you can pick up Media Suite 14 for the upgrade price of just $70.

Disney Plus Free Trial: Can you stream for free in 2024?

Disney+ app on the iPad Air 5.

There is currently no Disney Plus free trial. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. In fact, there hasn't been a Disney Plus free trial for many years. But all is not lost. While you can't get Disney Plus for free, there are quite a few very cheap options. We list all of the tiers and options below: Everything from the $8 ad-supported tier to the $25 Disney Bundle Trio, which includes ad-free Disney Plus, ad-free Hulu and ESPN+. Occasionally Disney has a deal that gets you three months for $6 total, but that's not available right now. We'll keep you updated if it ever comes back.

The best and most reliable way to save is through the Disney Bundle, which sees ESPN Plus and Hulu thrown in for just $15 a month. On their own, Disney Plus is normally $8 per month, Hulu is $8, and ESPN is $10, so this is a great deal. If it sounds good to you, you should start your subscription now. The price of the Disney Bundle increased to $15 on October 12, 2023.

Insignia 50-inch F30 LED 4K Smart TV — $220, was $300

Insignia's low cost TV just got even cheaper. It's got the standard LED display that you're probably used to if you last bought a TV some years ago, but also has a 4K resolution, smart capabilities, and a large 50-inch screen. In other words, this is a fantastic way to upgrade or replace your aging TV for about the same cost (or less) than you paid for it. If you're wanting a TV, but don't want to pay too much, this is a no-brainer.
