I've always preferred roxio. Nero has what I can only describe as a 'devilish' color scheme with flames and a kind of a devil face.....yuk. Looks like it was made by kids for kids. Plus the interface assumes you are stupid and can't navigate through a standard windows interface....gaaa....

But, I'm running XP Pro 2002 SP2 and I can not find any mention of BURN CD or DVD Manager or CopyToDVD in the help section. I have old copies of both Nero and Roxio, but they do not mention iso type files. Since I need to purchase a current copy of either Nero or Roxio, do any of you have a preference between the two?
