 title in a total of six categories, and the runaway winner in "CeBIT-Highlight Software" was Nero 6.3, the new multimedia suite from Ahead.

From regular feature to star of the show

Playing and recording DVDs and CDs, editing video and music files and automating data backup and just a few of the features that have transformed Nero 6 from straightforward software burning program to full-scale multimedia suite. Ahead's newest development is the first ever burn software package to feature high-compression MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group) An ISO/ITU standard for compressing digital video. Pronounced "em-peg," it is the universal standard for digital terrestrial, cable and satellite TV, DVDs and digital video recorders (DVRs). 4 codecs The following is a list of codecs. Audio codecs

In addition, the software represents today's solution to tomorrow's burning needs; Nero not only deals with double-layer DVDs, but is also one of the first programs to speed up data access by using 64-bit and hyperthreading technology. "Consistent exploitation of state-of-the-art technology" was the comment of Judith Berkemeyer from CHIP's editorial team. "Thanks to the wealth of intelligent, well-designed features plus extreme user-friendliness, our decision to select Nero 6.3 as 'CeBIT-Highlight Software' was an easy one."

Closer Focus on Users

The Nero 6 Suite developed out of an ambition to create a package that met users' needs and desires as effectively as possible. It's a thoroughly logical, wholly customer-oriented advance on the bestselling Nero Burning ROM A popular CD packet writing application from Nero AG, Karlsbad, Germany (www.nero.com). Highly praised for its professional and comprehensive features, Nero has been widely used to "burn" CD-Rs and write CD-RWs.  5.5 that more than achieves its lofty target.
