Hi Patlaw
There is no need to burn a copy of Vegas onto a DVD!
I am also like yourself and keep a large library of all my Programs, but I stopped making DVD backups 10 years ago!
Inside my Documents folder, I have created a folder called Program Installation Files, which is where I store copies of every program on my computer.
This folder is backed up every week onto my backup drive.
When you run the installer for any MAGIX program, it actually downloads a copy of all the programs and apps that come with the software.
So in the event that you need to reinstall a bought program from many years ago, you can do so from inside the Magix Downloads folder.
Go to your Documents folder right now and you will discover a folder has been created that is called MAGIX Downloads.
Inside this master folder you will also find another folder called Installationsmanager.
Here you will find original copies of every Magix program you have installed.
As long as you are doing full backups of your computer that include your Documents folder, you will have backups/copies of the programs you are asking about.
There really is no need to burn DVD copies any more, if you use this method.
Regards
Derek
p.s.
Inside the Magix Downloads folder, I have also created a folder called Installers.
Here I save a copy of all the small installer files, that download the program files.
