I just purchased Asymetrix "Media Blitz" program for Windows 3.1
This program is very good for making multimedia presentations really fast
(I did one in less than 5 minutes, it was short but a good test)
The files can be incorporated into Multimedia Toolbook and other programs.
I am very impressed with this program, it's not an authoring system,
just a way to script .fli, .flc, .wav, .mid, .bmp, etc all together.
It could use some improvements though (but it's only on version 1.0)
I don't know if anyone else uses this product but I have a few questions

1) Does anyone have trouble with the CD audio part, mine won't work at all,
   I have other windows cd-audio players that do work fine, the Media Blitz
   program gets errors and I can't figure it out.  Any suggestions?

2) Does anyone know the email address of Asymetrix (if one exists)
   (It's faster to just email someone there instead of trying to call
    between classes at school)

3) How good are the extra disks of clips (disks #5-#8)?
   (although I will get them since they are free to registered users)

 - Thanks in advance
