Nero is computer users preferred CD/DVD burning application. And that is mainly due to the fact that this program that originaly only allowed us to burn out own compilations, be it music, video, programs or other on the typical CD/DVD, has now evolved and expanded until it has transformed into one of the
best digital multimedia solutions.
Nero surprises us with each new edition, by adding a whole new array of features to the already available ones, plus an improved user interface. The features that
Nero 9 includes is vast. We could orgranize it into five categories:
-
Burning. Nero 9 copies, extracts contents and burns CD, DVD and
Blu-ray. And it's compatible with both DVD-R and DVD+R.
-
Backup Copies. Nero 9 includes the
free utility
Nero BackitUp 4, that will allow us to easily backup all the files or even the full system, and even program automated backups with
Nero RecueAgent.
-
Multimedia. Nero 9 transforms your PC into a true multimedia center that can play
HD files and all the latest multimedia formats.
-
Multimedia editing. With
Nero 9 you can easily create your own videos, using the template the program includes or from scratch, edit audio or extract audio from a video, and it even includes simple photo editing tools.
-
Convert and Share. Transform you multimedia files to multiple formats, and share your images and video in MyNero, YouTube, MySpace, etc...
You can access all the applications from a single interface named
Nero SmartStart, that will actually indicate us the best application to use for each task we want to do. If we don't want to use Nero SmartStart, we can allways access each application independently.
Nero 9 includes the following applications: Nero StartSmart, Nero ShowTime, Nero Live, Nero DiscCopy Gadget, Nero Live Gadget, Nero WaveEditor, Nero SoundTrax, Nero Recode, Nero PhotoSnap, Nero PhotoSnap Viewer, Nero Burning ROM, Nero Express, Nero CoverDesigner, Nero Vision, Nero DiscSpeed, Nero DriveSpeed, Nero BurnRights, Nero RescueAgent, Nero InfoTool, InCD, Nero ProductInstaller, Nero ControlCenter.
