CAPS Rating:
****

Develops and markets computer software related to digital media ? that is, data, photographs, audio, and video in digital formats.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

SNIC has a deep history of experience and expertise in digital media. They've made smart moves in transitioning from B2B to B2C product plays. Digital media will continue to occupy a bigger slice of the media pie. SNIC is well positioned to capitalize.

Only market is software for burning to optical media. Roxio did well because people needed multi-CDs for places. However, with the iPod, people can take their complete colletion with them without the need for CDs. And for DVDs, people don't have the need to burn them like they did for DVDs. Hard Dri...More

Change in movie industry regs allowing for DVD burning of a 1 time nature, encrypted with the same digital protection as commercially made DVDs should drive the video download demand.

SNIC is currently depressed for two reasons: the slow adoption of HD technology and the cloud hanging over the company about the stock option issues. I have no idea how the option issue will resolve itself in the very short term, but it should be resolved reasonably soon (one would think) and then will be ancient history in a few quarters. The other problem is the slow adoption of HD because of the dual formats HD DVD and Blu ray technologies. Here I think it will take a little longer to shake things out, perhaps in the 2-year time frame. As one format come out the clear winner, there should be a rapid pickup in sales.

Still I see a short term (6 month) upside to as high as 15 if the option scandal is resolved without any all too big disasters and the company has a reasonable X'mas selling season.

In the 2-4 year rang I see the price going about 3x from here to the 22-24 range.

Toast -- yummmm! Seriously, the company produces top-of-the-line software that consistently adds new features to keep up with the latest technology. Blu-Ray will most likely replace DVDs because of greater storage technology and the new Toast Titanium supports Blu-Ray drives. Other features improve audio disk creation substantially. Mac support for Tivotogo is another plus.

Financials look very good and the company has been around a long time. Current price looks nice and low.
