Alternatives to NERO

Edited- Thanks fella's

 

what format are you converting them to?

I would use VLC as a player (been threaded a few days b4)

 

I use Clone CD for burning software. As for media viewing software i use VLC media player, plays pretty much about every file type and its free.

VLC Media Player
Clone CD

 

for viewing http://files.uberdownloads.com/software/video-player/VLC.html Free

For burning http://www.deepburner.com/?r=products also free

 

for backing up dvd's, dvdshrink. for cd's, as has been said, clone cd.

 

Agreed, used these for a while and never had a problem.

VLC Media Player works well and hasn't crashed or failed to run a DVD so far.
It seems to use less resources than MPlayer and loads faster.
I found Nero fiddly and with functions I don't use.

Clone CD ("Backup your music, data or navigation CDs with the famous CloneCD - regardless if they are copy protected or not")

Other CD Burners are here (in their opinion) http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/the-best-free-alternatives-to-nero-cddvd-burner/
