My external DVD burner came with Cyberlink Producer - which is CRAP. I'm seriously considering to buy either Roxio or Nero now. Can anybody tell me which one's better? Or any other recommendations? Thank you!

I use Nero to burn everything.

i use nero but only becuz it came w/ the external burner i bought though

it's OK
sometimes it's frustrating but overall, it's isn't bad
sorry, but don't know about roxio though

i generally like to use nero more. it's just easier for me to use.

either is okay though; i have both. lol

[yay =]]

Easy CD Creator (Roxio) used to be good back when it was v4.0. Afterwards from v5.0 and beyond, it really went downhill and many people have reported problems with it. Not to say people don't report problems with Nero either... but between the two, Nero is more versatile, a bit less bloated and has way more features (including Nero Recode's excellent H.264 ASP encoding engine). It's simple enough to use for a novice, but retains all the advance options and features for power users (as long as you ween yourself off of those wizard-driven programs like Nero's StartSmart). It's also got excellent support of all the different burners out there and is constantly updated. I'd recommend Nero as your primary burning program.

definitly get nero. I got roxio with my new computer, and it is so confusing, what to do and my brother burned a few dvds with it and on my friends computer it wouldnt let even let him look at the files.....before on my old computer, i had nero and it never, ever gave me any problems....Im planning on buying nero soon.

Best response. All that is needed.
