Nero 6.6 took the Editor’s Choice award and 4.5 stars in Laptop’s January 2005 issue. “Among those who know disc burning, Nero is probably the most revered name in the field, and deservedly so,” wrote William Van Winkle. “When we talk about keeping a curtain of simplicity over a wealth of functionality, Nero is the master.”
