Editor's review of Nero 8 Ultra Edition 8.3.6
5.0 stars
- "Beyond basic burning"
Nero 8 Ultra delivers a refurbished digital media suite that's still as comprehensive as they come, though now in a more polished wrapper. The installation file is massive; also, once Nero is on your machine, it consumes a hefty serving of memory. Considering all it can do, though, we can only complain so much.
CD- and DVD-burning is still Nero's core; welcome shortcuts for burning and ripping CDs and DVDs are now accessible from the new StartSmart GUI, which is now adorned with a programmable RSS reader. Authoring and burning high-definition CDs and DVDs are added features, and so is the ability to export video files made and edited with Nero to YouTube, MySpace, and MyNero.
Nero 8 Ultra introduces RescueAgent, a tool to recover data from damaged disks, and a gaggle of Vista features, including a one-click desktop gadget for copying CDs.
Despite the cosmetic alterations, Vista support, and enhancements, particularly to Nero Vision, the dramatic changes are slim. However, Nero Ultra 8's significantly faster application launch time and improved usability make the audio, video, photo, data, and home entertainment workhorse that lets you edit MP3s, capture and edit video, record and playback TV, create slide shows, back up data, convert audio files, check your hardware specs, and design disc covers with ease well worth a try.

Version: Nero 8 Ultra Edition 8.3.6
"Pray you never need tech support"
Pros: This program can do a lot of things. I don't know of another that is better for the price - when it works.
Cons: This is a very complex and buggy program and freezes up quite regularly. Their tech support is some of the worst in the world. They will go out of their way to try to avoid helping you in any way. Once they have your money you are of no use to them.
Summary: Please somebody develop a product to compete with this one! I can't find anything to replace it with and I never want to give them any money again after he way they've treated me.

Version: Nero 8 Ultra Edition 8.3.6
Pros: Does the job, but at a high price - dollars and nuisance
Cons: Inflexible, slow, bloatware
Summary: Stay away from this software until Nero learn to treat their customers with courtesy and respect. Nero Vision hijacks many, many file associations and creates absolute havoc. They may think it?s clever, but it's a real pain that can only be fixed by... read more >>
