It's quite a deal if your interested in the Nero Suite.

Oh and it works, I got mine.

I dunno about that ... it looka like the OEM suite, not the full retail version.

OEM just means it doesn't have the manuals and packaging. It will still have all the same features. Hell, I buy most of my Microsoft Office stuff OEM.

Anyone have an opinion about Nero? I see ChiefsFanatic thought it was crap. Any reason why you thought it was crap, ChiefsFanatic? I'm needing something for burning dvds. Of course, free would be even better. :D

I use it. It has never failed and beats the hell out of Roxio. I have both most recent versions.

It burns cleaner music (fewer skips and fails), it makes DVD copies just fine (though I would like to be able to mess with the contrast and brightness before burning). It is not always user friendly even with the Start Smart option, but once I learned it, I have found no comparison on the market.

I thought it was really slow [my rig has 3.2 ghz P4, etc. etc,] To burn DVDs I use Intervideo, or CloneDVD 3. Clone has a little slower burning engine. [and I am not talking about the speed of my burner]

You can get a copy of CloneDVD 3 or DVDSanta 4 at

I believe these programs are reverse engineered, but if it works for you, and you feel guilty, then you could always purchase them. There are other programs there too.

I use it for burning any number of different types of data cd's, from .mp3's to .iso's. I'm happy with it... and the price has dropped all th way to $0.00. What a bargain!

Ordinarily yes, but NOT in this case. The Nero suite that comes OEM is Nero Express, which is a basic burn/copy suite. The full Nero is Nero Ultra, which has more features such as video editing and encoding.

Roxio does this too ... their OEM product has some options "greyed out". You're getting a functioning product, but it's not the full-featured version.

Thanks. I didn't know.

I have the editing feature and never use it. I bought DVD lab instead. Well worth the 100.00.
