Thread: Best Commercial Alternative to Nero?

  1. #1

    Question Mark

    I want a commercial alternative, because the free ones have a UI my non-computer savy relatives dont understand as well. I'd use nero but it knows you have a invalid version unless you put up a firewall and that is something i wont do on their computers, because they will block the wrong programs or all of them. Plus Nero is a bloated hog of a program.

    The alternative needs to do CD/DVD burning, rip CD/DVDs to ISO and be able to burn ISO files to CD/DVD

    Thanks in advance

    Every requirement that you listed can be found in the free alternative, CdBurnerXP. It is a standard replacement that I put on all of the computer systems that I build. Furthermore, all of my customers use it and I have never heard a single complaint about it over the years. It's a very straightforward piece of software that gets the job done right the first time around.

    Not sure if outside links are allowed on FST, but you can always google 'CDBurnerXP'

    Nero portable. Fits on a flash drive, very light weight... No bloating.

    I tried it out and it does have a Good UI, so I guess I'll use free software

    Besides Nero, there's only one competitor, in my opinion.

    Roxio.
