It is a personal thing. I would not choose either, both are bloated and I have had 3 nero failures resulting in complete e-installs.

If you are looking for burning software just do a search here on SF. I was going to say if I had to I would pick, but I wouldnt

sorry

Re: roxio or nero?

For burning conventional audio CDs, such as if you have .flac files or whatnot, Burrrn Portable, and CDBurnerXP both work fine on Vista64. Both will automatically convert the .flac files. For general DVD burning I like Imgburn.

Like many I started out with Nero using it to do the video conversions as well as burning. Last version I bought was version 6 Ultimate. Since then I've found I get more control doing the conversions and burning as separate operations.

You can find lots of free conversion programs on VideoHelp.com - Forum, Guides, Tools and hardware lists

Re: roxio or nero?

there are tons of apps that aren't bloadted and do the job. I personally use Alcohol 120% as I need several virtual dvd's so I can leave game dvd's mounted.

Its small, fast, does waht I want and doesn't bork my system


hope this helps and welcome to vistax64

Yep, alcohol 120, not 52. 120 mounts unlimited virtual drives, burns images, mounts MD5, all sorts of things.
