Publisher's description of Nero Burning ROM 5.5.8.2
From Nero:Nero is a flexible, reliable, and easy-to-use application designed to write to both CD-R and CD-RW discs. It supports ISO 9660 images, as well as ISO mode 1 and XA mode 2, and allows for on-the-fly disc recording, in addition to overburning (if supported by hardware). Nero also supports multisession and mixed-mode recording; HFS, ISO/HFS hybrid, UDF, PSX, OFAS (optimal file access speed), track-at-once (TAO), and disc-at-once (DAO) writing; and digital audio extraction. In addition, Nero can dynamically disable automatic-insert notification, and it offers support for multiple languages and works with all major models of CD-R and CD-RW drives.
Recent updates added a full-featured WAV editor with a range of audio processing options, real-time effects, a settings manager, an advanced cover designer, a drag-and-drop MPEG1 video encoding feature, an audio plug-in interface for new audio formats, and a drive toolkit for benchmarking and adjusting drive speed.
Version 5.5.8.2 adds support for new recorders, a display with the current CD number in the burn status dialog, the ability to play an audio track from the track list in the file browser, and more. The latest version also includes a host of bug fixes.
Note: This file can be used as the Nero demo version if you have not had Nero installed previously, or as an upgrade from older versions of Nero. In case of an upgrade, the software will detect whether you are entitled to a free upgrade.
Editor's review of Nero Burning ROM 5.5.8.2

- "Beyond basic burning"
- Version reviewed: Nero Burning ROM 5.5.8.2
You can find plenty of programs to handle your CD- and DVD-burning tasks, but few have as many features and cover as many aspects as Nero. Beyond burning CDs and DVDs, you can back up your computer, create artwork for your CD and DVD cases, make complex mixes with Nero's built-in mixing software, and even check your hardware specs to make sure everything is up to speed. We like the comprehensive coverage of all things that have to do with burning, making it possible to avoid juggling several programs to make a single CD. We're also fans of the Nero PhotoShow Express module, which lets you manage your digital-image collection and create custom slide shows. One of Nero's greatest features is its MPEG-4 encoder for copying noncopyrighted DVD movies to CD-R/RW and several other media formats.
We were skeptical of the fact that Nero might be trying to stuff too much into its software, but the StartSmart GUI opens a clear path for both beginners and advanced users to every aspect of the software suite. We would like a 30-day trial rather than having the demo expire at the end of the month, which gave us only four days from our installation. Overall, this great suite of programs covers all your CD- and DVD-burning needs, and we recommend it to anyone with a writable drive.
