Merits:
An all in one digital entertainment software, that’s my feel. It contains almost all digital needs. And its easy to use is also very uncommon. The elegant and modern interface makes it more absorbing. With it, you can watch TV, listen to the radio, burn DVDs, record your favorite programs, read the news and so on… Another feature the producer is proud of is "Always Time-Shift Recording" which lets you watch the programs while PowerCinema is still recording them.

Demerits:
It includs so more functions that make it a little fat. And the less control also is a shame.

Benefits:
With it, you can search for TV programs by name, category, and channel on PC. You can also schedule your PC to record shows while you´re out. You can catch up on the action of live TV shows even after they've started, with time-shift recording. You can record programs to a hard disk, too. You can enjoy its Dolby Digital audio and watch widescreen movies in their true display ratio. It can sync music files with your portable media player. It also can remove photo red-eyes, auto fix contrast and brightness and display photos as a slideshow with background music and transition effects. Not end of this, it provides a lot of useful tool, for instance, access live weather and news information, change your interface colors and themes, expand functionality with packs for video editing, disc burning, and watching sports highlights and enrich the movie experience with the Advanced Audio Pack of home-theater technologies.

Setup:
The size of it is 94.32MB. There is no adware, spyware or virus combined with this utility. The installation is very easy, so as to uninstallation. You just do follow the wizard, but don’t just click “next”, you’d better continue the process after you learn the content clearly. This program offers a quick door to remove the entire  program.

Interface:
CyberLink PowerCinema has a very nice sleek interface. The items icon are also very clear and beautiful. It has three colors, you can choose your favorite. I like the default color. But the control of itmes is a little weak. 

System Requirements:
Cyberlink Powercinema can work well on Intel Pentium 4 2.6 GHz or higher CPU, 256 MB of RAM, win XP/Vista OS, 200 MB of available hard disk space required for installation(500 MB required for running the program, 1 GB of free hard disk space is required for running the TV time-shifting function).

Conclusion:
In a word, it is a great program of digital entertainment with some good features. If you want to get a all-in-one software, you should try it.
