Nerolinux and got a license for using it from Nero. The download was still<br>
available and it works fine so far burning dual layer dvd disks. I have only<br>
recently obtained a bluray burner and do not know if it will burn those yet,<br>
but I will try soon.<br>
I used the Nero version of burning software because I was familiar with it.<br>
I agree it is one of the main complaints I have with using linux OS that I can<br>
do these things easier on windows os. This is not a good thing to show new<br>
users. Most just want to do the usual things on linux they did on windows but<br>
not have to deal with all the stuff that tended to mess up their normal use<br>
such as the malware etc.<br>
I dont think most of the linux users would mind paying a small fee to use the<br>
OS if it would help get things like burning bluray disks resolved. No one<br>
wants to do all that work for nothing. Say a $10 fee to use a distro and get<br>
all the updates and free software compared to the cheapest version of windows<br>
7 which is useful at all costing about $100 and virtually no free software to<br>
use on the OS.<br>
Until something like this happens and users can find an easy painless way to<br>
migrate to linux it will continue to be hard to convince someone it is in<br>
their best interest to do so.<br>
