  "Best!"

  by computer_genius on May 5, 2005

  Pros: If you want a cd-burning software but Nero is to bulky for you, this is the best and most economic alternative. With a nice interface too. It's also very easy to use, and online support is very good. Even the included help file can answer almost all your questions. Besides, not everybody needs a WAV Editor or CD Cover Maker not unless you're really into burning, CD making, or WAV editing. If you only need a simple burner, get Ashampoo Burning Studio instead of Nero. But I have both Nero and Ashampoo, I alternate the use between them.

  Cons: None. It's excellent!

  "Good for CD burning, horrible for DVD burning!"

  by The Sports Fan on January 15, 2008

  Pros: I installed this program instead of my "Nero " and as one who is forever updating my computer back-ups to DVD I gave it a whirl. What happened over and over was disk burning failure. So I tries a couple of CD's with good success both in music and data. Unfortunately, I need data DVD's so it's out-a-here and I'm back to my "Nero 7.10.12" which burns without failure.

  Cons: Repeated burn failure on DVD data disks forced me to go back to "Nero 7 Ultimate" It's to bad really because it's an easy install and small compared to "Nero".

  "Fast!"

  by Corydory on May 27, 2005

  Pros: As a fan of Nero, I am actually quite suprized how many times I click on this program instead of the above mentioned when burning cds ect. That said Ashampoo offers a simplier interface and FASTER speed results as a whole - plus it's error protection options are great. As I have a dvd player that can play mpg files without the hassel of converting to vcd ect this program is truely the best for my burning needs.

  Cons: Okay the one thing that does annoy me is you can't seem to drag the files up or down once you have selected them (unlike Nero) for viewing preferences (I just choose the correct order) - this said Ashampoo is faster and a perfect buddy for Nero.

  "Not bad as a disk buring application."

  by Chainmail2006 on August 12, 2007

  Pros: The GUI is great. It has many features and writes a good CD or DVD. I found the speed average on music CD's and data DVD's and the quality of the finished disk wasn't bad at all. It runs fine on either an "XP" or "Vista" system but so does "Ashampoo Burning Studio 6" and you can get it dirt cheap directly from "Ashampoo". I did find two issues with this application.

  Cons: First, it ruined two CD/RW disks. The disk erase feature id terrible. It is as slow as a snail while burning a movie and it doesn't have the ability to fit a standard movie on a standard size DVD. It took well over 90 minutes for it to tell me the file was to big to fit on my DVD and thus, the disk was wasted. It is just not improved enough to be worth the money. I recommend version 6 instead.
