I am still debating on whether or not to use Nero 6 or Nero 7.

:huh:

Stay with Nero 6.6

Version 7 is just bloatware with no real advantages, it's just a marketing stunt. :ermm:

No, it's not a marketing stunt. There just aren't any huge new features in Nero 7 yet. When Nero 6 came out, a lot of people are forgetting that it was also plagued with problems and it wasn't until around 6.3 that it really got to be an amazing piece of software. Nero is famous for adding huge new features not at a major release version (Nero 6.6 to Nero 7), but rather in interim releases within a major release. You can expect to see major new features probably sometime around Nero 7.2 or 7.3 or 7.5, depending on what they call it, and of course all updates within the 7.x range are free to those who already have Nero 7. Nero 6 had almost no exciting new features over Nero 5.5 when it came out other than a slightly updated UI. The huge new features in Nero 6 came with versions 6.3 and 6.6.

Also, it's not bloatware. You do realize that many people nowadays want to be able to do a lot with their CD/DVD burning software besides just burn a simple audio or data CD, right? Let me throw in a quote from PC World's review of Nero 7 and Roxio's Easy Media Creator 8:

How many users actually want or require such features is questionable. What is clear, however, is that CD/DVD suites are looking toward a future that goes well beyond simply burning discs.

You must realize that most consumers who purchase Nero or Easy Media Creator in the stores likely want it for more than just basic burning. They want to be able to backup their PC's with the software. They want to be able to author their own DVD's, create menus, make creative transitions. They want to be able to edit their video, stitch two clips together, remove a piece of another clip, add a background music track to it. You might say, "Fine, just make people buy specific software to suit those needs." Well, you must understand that all of those things I mentioned all logically come back to CD or DVD burning, as people would want to listen or watch what they created on a standalone player.

It's not like you are forced to install everything out of the box. Anybody who just clicks Next, Next, Next, Next, Finish without paying attention to what they are doing and ends up choosing the "Typical Install" option has absolutely no right to complain about the software, when it offers a customized installation option that lets you choose what you want or don't want installed.
