there is better software for burning cd/dvds

nero worked, but was always kinda clunky

windows built in burning is too crappy
it saves everything to hdd/ssd until you hit burn, then clones the disk to the disc

power iso or winiso are free/cheap and you can drop files/folders to it without windows doing any stupid junk in the background and burn saving so much drive space and disk actviity

What exactly do you use NERO for?

Nero still relevant? Is not it a huge combine of useless features?

it certainly hit that nostalgia button when i read it

I mean seriously, who's still burning discs, period. I mean WHY?

Just go get a large cap External HDD / SSD.

8TB, 12TB and 16TB HDDs are fairly cheap these days.

You can even copy discs to your PC as an ISO backup image; then backup the ISO to your external drive and read each ISO like it's a physical CD/DVD

imgburn is the only software to use on windows, everything else is varying levels of crap yet alone overpriced af.

I have a 100TB NAS and just got my first BD drive to do some off site backups.
The overwhelming majority of my old discs work perfectly fine still, can't say the same about my stack of IDE drives, and thats with discs that were never handled with much care or burned with best practices. Don't even get me started on flash, without exceptions every flash drive I bought in the past however many years died within months of very light use, top brands off brand no different, old ones work just fine and now I had on every SSD i own videos corrupt occasionally after one month of being stored there, SD cards break after a while too. Optical is as reliable as it gets for long term consumer storage, real shame nobody cares about it, or even having a large amount of storage anymore, big HDDs wouldn't exist if they weren't used by data centers, for some reason it has been decided that a 2TB SSD at most is all normal people should be allowed to have, something something own nothing...

Compact discs are not subject to an EMP. They are the MOST resilient form of data storage if stored properly and taken care of as anything electrical can and will fail eventually.
