Nero 6 Ultra Edition

Summary: Fantastic Software
Review: I have been nothing but thrilled with Nero 6 Ultra.

I had the previous 5.5 and HATED it, but with Nero's new StartSmart - I'm a believer again.

Just about anything you wish to do with CD-R/DVD-R's and RW's can be accomplished, I use Nero's Vision Express (comes with Nero 6 Ultra) to make DVD movies from my favorite TV shows - I put 4 shows on a DVD with chapters, menu's and everything and it only takes a few minutes, the encoding and everything is so fast.

I read a few other reviews that claimed the data wasn't written properly - to answer that - Nero has a box that says "verify data when burn completes", I select this everytime I backup anything to a disc, it verifies everything is fine, and I've never had a corrupt disc since using Nero 6 Ultra, EVER. In fact, nearly all corrupt discs are because of bad media, not your burning software- Nero fixes this issue.

The inteface is intuitive and works great, and the tools included are fantastic also, test your CD/DVD drives, get the speeds correctly and refined properly, make case covers, and just about anything else you want to accomplish.

Nero has absolutely done it with this program, I literally uninstalled Pinnacle and Roxio after using Nero, I for once have NO other CD/DVD software on my computer anymore, and thats a great thing!

Summary: Versatile and Reliable
Review: I was a bit intimidated when I first started using Nero two years ago, but once you take the time to learn it, it is very much worth it. Working in radio I have probably burned well over 500 CD-R's in that time, as well as over 100 DVD's and never once had a defective burn or any other problem that wasn't due to my own stupidity or hardware issues. It does everything you need a burning software to do, and is reliable. If you are having trouble with it, I would recommend using the Nero Express option. A full electronic user's manual is available on Nero's website to those who need documentation. Highly recommended.
