Nero 6 or Nero 7? · DIGIT-ARC

Hi Guys!

I had been using Nero 6 for all my CD/DVD writing jobs and am quite satisfied with it. Just wanted to know is Nero 7 worth upgrading for a person who uses this software for basic CD/DVD writing. I am not much concerned about the other features available in these softwares.

Thank you.

Nero 7 has more features and requires more RAM. I still use 6 cause it does my job and does it well. I don't think you need to upgrade if simple CD/DVD writing is your only requirement.

+1 for above reply

Basic Burning = Nero 6
Loads of Goodies = Nero 7

go for nero 8 dude...

^ Nero 8 require minimum of 256 MB RAM!

I like Nero 5.

And yes Neo 6 is good for basic burning.

I suggest you use Infrarecorder-free & easy.
Get it here:

I don't know about Nero 7, earlier I used Nero 5.5 and shifted to Nero 6 for DVD writing.

i got Nero 7 essentials (OEM vrsion) with my DVD writer

does a good job

i was earlier using nero 6 then changed to nero7 lite version, and nero7 lite version is much better than nero 6 and consumes less memory than 6
u can aslo try "infrarecorder" light and efficient software

+1 for nero 7 lite

Cheetah CD/DVD burn is nyday better than infra rec nd Nero 6/7/8. Its much faser nd stable than nero series.

Nero 6 is better than Nero 7 for day-to-day burning.

No need to upgrade to Nero 7. You can try a demo of Nero 8 though.

Nero 7 - No no for you

From where can I get nero8? Nero site doesn't have mention of nero 8. I want an official beta or demo.

donno about that...but i hate Neor 7's goodies.....6 is the best one...

Hasn't released officially. Its out on the warez scene however, and thus the excitement.

i like nero 7...other features r really good.

Hmmm I did download the Nero 8 Ultra Edition (about 1 GB) don't tell me I simply wasted my bandwidth ...

@adithyagenius
Nero 8 is released as a retail version. Wait for sometime till u get an official demo

I didn't say anything like that. You have to try it for yourself and find out if its good or not for you.

1 GB for Nero 8... What the hell. A CD/DVD burning software of 1 GB... Where are these software companies taking us...

Oh that's cause its a multi-language version which's leaked. I guess the single language would be around 300-400 MB.

Nero 7 hogs ur memory. So if u hav lower mem. go for Nero 6. For basic CD/DVD writing, Nero 7 is a definite no-no.

U can try DP CD DVD Burner 1.1 Beta 8. It is just 618KB in size!!!

What kind of CD/DVD can one write with Nero 7, that one can't in Nero 6 ??

I am very happy with Nero 6.

I installed Nero 7 just to check out the Network burn feature, its good but doesn't work on multisession cd's.

And ya when BR and HD-DVD becomes widely available, i will be forced to install their new version, as of now Hail Nero 6.

I recommend u for Nero 7 dude

gr8 programme to burn all types of media :razz:

to tell u d truth i have burnt only a couple of disks using it [all error-free]

i use Nero 7 Essentials since i got it with my writer

mite wan2 try it out (max 7-10 bux wasted, but i dont think it will b wasted tho)

i still use nero 6. it does a find job for me. there mebbe some incompatibilities wid multisession DVDs burnt wid nero 6. thats the only drawback. but i stay away from it hence no problem. nero 6 is the last non-bloated version!

if multisession dvds are ur requirement then i suggest nero 7 (not the retail version but the lite or micro version).

Nero.com has a package to purchase Nero 8 ultra and as a bonus they give you nero 7 ultra.... So how good do you think those 2 peices of software are. I downloaded nero 8 for my vista, works good but thats cuz there is hardly anything (other programs) on my vista machine. If I want to backup a movie I still use nero 6.6 ultra. if you have 6 I would stick with 6, unless you're made of money.

I dont think theres any problem with multisession DVD's written in Nero 6. I had been using Nero 6 since long and do write a multisession DVD almost every day and never faced a problem.

i'm not talking about problem wid writing. i'm talking compatibility.

btw, vista doesn't officially support nero 6. i tried to run it, however, but there were lotsa problems.

"Nero 8 will have at least the same functions as Nero 7 has but video and sound editing will even be better and provide new features!
As Nero 8 can be pre-ordered since some days you can get Nero 7 for free to use this version until Nero 8 will be available in October.
Nero 7 supports Windows Vista since version 7.5.7.0
You can download the latest Nero 7 version from our website (free of charge for all Nero 7 customers!):
*www.nero.com/nero7/eng/nero7-up.php
In addition you can download all Nero 7 manuals from the Nero website:
*www.nero.com/nero7/eng/User_Guides.html" (this is a response I got from an email I wrote to Nero.. as u can see nero 6 isn't supported for vista)
