Anyone Using Nero?

[stogiedude]

I hardly ever burn discs anymore, but I may burn some compilation CDs and some DVDs soon. Nero came on my PC and I've looked at it a couple of times. It looks like it does a lot. In fact so much it's overwhelming.

Any Nero fans here? If not Nero then what do y'all recommend for burning CDs and DVDs? I'm not going to be burning any video, just audio like MP3s and maybe some data disks/backup disks.

Nero is great. I usually invoke Nero with the "Nero Burning ROM" program rather than the Nero Start Smart (or whatever it's called).

Nero can do just about everything. Nero is to Windows what Toast is to Mac.

I like the Sonic CD/DVR burning software for it's simplicity, but it cannot compete with Nero's breadth of options.

I use Nero Express. I don't use the other programs in the suite. The multimedia ones are way to crude and the Burning ROM is too complicated.

Nero is awesome. I use it all the time to burn CDs and DVDs.

Nero has grown into a bloated piggy over the years. Some free streamlined alternatives:

For general data and music burning:

For burning disc ISO images:

The version of Nero you have already installed should do the trick.

I'm using version 6.somthing of Nero without issue.

Nero express here, but nothing to compare it with? it works ok.

I just use it to put pictures on disc so I can send them to my non-computer owning parents. They slideshow them on the TV in the dvd player.

If I just burn music I dont even bother with any kind of software and just use windoze media player. For movies I use the shrinker program in conjunction with imageburn.
