I was using V7.0, it came with an optical drive, I went back to V6.0.
I have V8.0 now, paid £35.00 for it in PC World which is even cheaper than online (as far as I could work out anyway) and I honestly think V6.0 was better than V8.0 as well.
But at least V8.0 is better than V7.0, V7.0 was Nero's ME
They have been selling Nero and Power DVD for the past 9 months or so for really ridiculous prices . I recon they must have bought a lorry load dead cheap .
