Nero 7 Is it worth it?

[NightTran]

my nero 7 is better then 6, I use alot of nero vision express

[Chewy]

I used nero 5.5xxx(4 or 5 updates) long after nero 6 came out, then it wouldn't see my newer dvd burners, I upgraded to nero 6, but 6.3xx was buggy and I found they had updated it to 6.6xxx. It's fully mature and I will wait a while longer on nero 7 to mature. The last vision express update seems to be based improvements in the 7 package. I am too happy with it to consider paying for the upgrade.

Nice post Chewy.

Some users complains about an excessive RAM memory usage of latest versions of nero 6, and in nero 7.

If you have an old machine, or if you are low in RAM, maybe it's better to not update to nero 7.

The main "issue" of nero is that it have a lot of features that most of people never use. If you need some specific feature located only in nero 7, then you can consider to upgrade. If nero 6 is sufficient for your needs, and if you don't have problems, I suggest to retain nero 6.

Besides, I agree with other users to give a possibility to Imgburn. Now that it's able to build ISO files, I use lesser and lesser nero. Actually I'm strongly considering to uninstall it from my computer

The one thing I do like is the updated Nero Player I think it rivales MPC with picture quality

the player usually does not affect picture quality, but which decoder is used. mpc would use it's own (gabest's mpv decoder), while showtime would use nero dvd decoder. they should be quite similar in quality, one is only better than the other with interlaced content

The only reason I still have Ner0 on my PC is to be able to assist Ner0 users.

ok, but quicktime? the alternative is much better

[blutach]

QT is required for Procoder 2.

In any event, the point is Ner0 7 is, IMO, just not worth it.

i had to install itunes & quicktime when i got my iPod. removed all file associations and startup items afterwards, wasn't too painful.

i wouldn't have installed quicktime if i didn't have a video ipod; i've come to the conclusion that itunes checks for ipod spec compliance by opening it in quicktime. unfortuantely doesn't work too well with qt alternative

If I even thought about getting rid of Nero Burning Rom, my wife would kill me with the PC. 6.6 Ultra fully updated but would I make the move to 7, probably not. I also used to use it to burn automatically with Dvd Shrink but it's been a long time since I burned a dvd with it.

I don't think I would upgrade either. 6.6 is doing everything I need it to do. So as the old saying goes "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
