Please suggest freeware alternatives to these bloatwares

I am looking for alternative software for:

1. Adobe reader - It uselessly hogs too much disk space & keeps on updating. Please suggest a lightweight alternative for it. I just use it read .pdf files. No advanced uses.

2. Nero Express - To burn data dvds & .iso images.

3. Nero Vision - The alternative software should be able to create DVD player compatible movie DVDs from .avi & .mkv files. Also it should be able to compress 3-4 movies to a single layer DVD & create menus.

1. Foxit PDF reader
2. CD Burner XP, InfraRecorder and DeepBurner
3. Not sure...

Arun

for 2. try Ashampoo Burning Studio 10 Free. its one of the best with easy to use interface & feature loaded.

Some help on number 3 please.

2. Imgburn - once you know how to use it you won't look back to any fancy app !

3. DVD Flick or AVStoDVD or FAVC - see which one works best for your needs.

agreed ^^...

DVD Flick is a great software. Unfortunately, it was able to compress only two movies onto one DVD.

^^ what about other 2 app ?

I tried all three of them & DVD Flick has the best-user interface & functions. But wierdly it does not compress movies well.

I'm now going to try DeVeDe.

^^ is that's a freeware app ?

1) Foxit Reader
2) Nero BurnLite
3) DVD Styler (if you want to create menus and interface)

Try CDburner xp
