Nero 8 Ultra Edition Review And Info

Despite being described by many as a digital-media powerhouse, previous versions of Nero have not been at the top of my list. Most casual users like the new cheap price (the newest version costs around the same price as Roxio Easy Media Creator 10), but there have been many complaints about the lack of hand-holding from feature to feature. Real tech guys love the specialized components, but are agravated by the lack of integration. The mild uproar must have gotton through to them.

Nero 8 now features a redesigned SmartStart portal that adds key functions into the initial interface. It also has some fancy new add-ons, which include a data-recovery tool, an improved 2D and 3D menu template for disc authoring, and expanded Blu-ray and HD DVD support. All together, the indavidual components provide about all the disc-burning, media-conversion, and media-editing capabilities that almost anyone would need.
