Also from the Apple iLife '06 forum comes a tip for getting iDVD 5 to burn dual-layer, by downloading a patch from the French site <http://www.hardmac.com/>. The webpage that the patch is on is <http://www.hardmac.com/news/2005-05-26/#4090>.

But from the instructions for using it, it all seems a little iffy to me, and I don't like their disclaimer "We do not guarantee that the patch is working neither the quality of the burns made with it." Might be a recipe for trouble. Probably better to just bite the bullet and buy iLife '06.

Looks like iLife '06 gives you Quicktime 7 along with iDVD 6 and the other 6 program updates, and iDVD 6 does support dual-layer DVD burning.

interesting: Apple charges $79 for iLife '06 for a single user, and $99 for a "Family Pack" that lets you put it on five computers.

I'm curious: how does Apple know how many computers you install a "single user" program on? Have they gone to "product activation" before you can use the iLife programs, like Adobe has done with its CS programs?

Has anybody here bought and installed iLife '06, and then had to have Apple activate it before they could use it?
