Grab A Copy Of Nero 9 Free Edition

31 Lug/09

microsoft windows The DVD burning software Nero evolved from a lighting fast application to burn CDs and DVDs to a bloated monstrosity in the last ten years. The latest versions come with so many modules and additional applications that most users hardly use. Yes, some may appreciate that Nero 9 can convert media files, let users watch multimedia files in the application or create music mixes but most users likely prefer otherwise.

The makers of Nero are now offering a stripped down version of Nero 9 for free on their website. Well, not totally free but if you give up an email address you can download and use the Nero 9 free edition. Nero 9 Free is only offering data disk burning and disk copying functionality. It still has a size of more than 55 Megabytes.

Nero 9 Free can be downloaded from the Nero website, or if that is preferred, from third party download portals like Softpedia where the download is also hosted. The benefit of downloading Nero 9 Free from these download portals is that no email address needs to be supplied before downloading the DVD burning software.

Nero 9 Free turns out to be Nero 9 Essentials which is a version of Nero that gets only distributed with hardware purchases. It should also be noted that the program will suggest to install the Ask Toolbar during installation. Make sure to uncheck the box if you do not want to install it.

Users who prefer lightweight might want to try out alternatives such as ImgBurn, Ashampoo Burning Studio Free or the recommendations in our best free burning software thread. Thanks Dante for the tip.
