Nero Express??

I've been looking for a newer CD-RW lately, and I've
seen several that include Nero Express software. Is
this a cut-down, budget version of Nero Burning ROM?
(I currently use Nero 5.) Or is this just a
user-antagonistic front end to Nero Burning ROM 6??

thanks,

chuck

The Express works fine for me. I only burn MP3 disks and a few wav
disks. Don't do video or other things. So far no coasters. I actually
like it better than regular Nero for my purposes.
YMMV

Yeah But !!!

What izzit? Is it a new software product? Or izzit
a new interface to a "works great" old software product?
Just want clarification.

If you happen to have an early version of Nero 5.5, it can be updated to =
5.5.10.54, which contains Nero Express (you can toggle between it and =
Burning ROM). If you only have Nero 5, you're out of luck, but here's a =

It actually IS Nero, only with a locked serial that limits you to the
Express GUI.

I've now got 5.5.10.50, which has NO express.

Question is: If I buy a new drive, do I want the new
Express software? Or am I better off with the old
Burning ROM 5.5.10.50 that I already have??

If you have 5.5.10.54, then you should have Express. You access it from the
programs menu, or from Nero itself on the toolbar.

The software review I previously mentioned, should give you a good feel =
for what Nero Express is like.

I suggest updating to 5.5.10.54 and see if you like using Nero Express.

Even if you still can't access Nero Express after updating, you could =
still buy and install your new drive and see if 5.5.10.54 recognizes it. =
If so, you're in business, there's no need to install the software that =
came with the drive.

Thanks all! From the news article, I'm assuming that Nero
Express is just a lightened front end, but that you do get
the entire Nero Burning ROM as well. (Express seems like just
an updated Nero Wizard, really.)

thanks again,

chuck

On drives I've bought in the past several months, only Nero Express was
included. The full Nero product was NOT.

You say that you already have 5.5.10.50. You should be able to upgrade to
a newer version that includes Nero Express. Really, though, I much prefer
the full Nero product--much more flexible.
